DISCLAIMER 2: OK I had a lot of stuff for this blog but a certain error happened to blogger and now most of the stuff for AF/UA is gone. So while I did have some incredibly complex paragraphs involving calculations they're mostly gone now and have been replaced by half-arsed content because do you honestly expect me to re-watch the episodes to put things back to the way they were. I won't. Luckily AF/UA focused more on the new aliens so not much has changed.
Ben 10 is a beloved cartoon that could almost be called a classic. It had an interesting premise, unique narrative and though it went through several different artstyles, it still left you wanting more...
5 Hours Later
OK I got that out of my system. As I was saying Ben 10 was a brilliant TV series and there's no such thing as a good TV series without an interesting protagonist. I am of course referring to Benjamin Kirby Tennyson himself.
Background
Ben used to be your average 10-year old boy. You know hated school but went to it anyway, occasionally got bullied and and goes on camping trips. Although he was one of the few kids who actually put others above himself as shown when he tried to stop his local bullies from bullying a kid. All that did was cause the bullies to beat on him but the kid he was trying to save.
During one particular camping trip he had the misfortune (or fortune depending on how you look at it) of finding a watch that could scan aliens and transform him into said aliens. This watch was dubbed the Omnitrix and Ben's first attempt using it nearly caused an entire forest to be burned down. Well when Ben did eventually figure it out, he started using his new found abilities to become a superhero and actually help people instead of in his own words "makes things worse".
Ben was able to lift and fire Max's giant gun to knock Vilgax out while he was distracted.
Ben is a quick learner as after only a few seconds he was able to get the hang of a highly advanced hovercraft. He was able to easily take control of it and was even able to use it to dodge energy attacks. he was even able to outmaneuver the two cultist attacking him and get them stuck in a vat of slime.
Ben is extremely resourceful as shown in Grudge Match where he kills a robot with its own arm and in Camp Fear where he uses the athlete foot powder to kill the giant plant brain guy (This show is so ******* weird).
Ben is also quite intuitive as he knew just what to do to reach the sword of Au Ekhulah in Ultimate Weapon.
Ben also has a hoverboard that he can use and as shown in Tough Luck was able to scale a 100-meter tower.
In A Small Problem the Omnitrix does seem to know when its being used for petty misdeed such as when Ben tried to turn into Ripjaws to scare the lifeguard in letting him into the Rpitide Rapids. Of course the more likely explanation is that the Omnitrix simply malfunctioned (however this malfunction does greatly extend the time limit). However the Omnitrix just might have a mind of its own as at the end of the episode when Ben mentions going 'Four Arms on you [Gwen]" the Omnitrix violently crackles with electricity.
In A Small Problem its shown that if Ben hits the Omnitrix too hard (or hits it against a wooden pole), the Omnitrix will randomize the alien Ben turns into.
As shown in Side Effects Ben's condition affects the aliens he turns into. For example when he's sick his aliens will also be sick rendering them less effective and more vulnerable.
As shown in Secrets the Omnitrix can be manually timed out.
In Secrets high levels of energy affected the Omnitrix and Ben kept transforming into different aliens until he was able to get out of the machine holding him captive.
In The Big Tick despite the Omnitrix timing out a couple minutes earlier, it recharged itself immediately when Ben was in danger. This is shown in a few earlier episodes as well but due to tricky framing and cuts, it was difficult to determine how much time had passed.
In Ghostfreaked Out the Omnitrix protected Ben from possession as he was in one of his alien forms. Even without being in an alien form the Omnitrix allows Ben to resist possession as when Ghostfreak tried to possess him, he was unable to do so for 11.31 seconds which is surprisingly long considering Ghostfreak was able to possess the Thumbskull, Acid Breath, Frightwig, some posh student and even Gwen (who is apparently a master magician) immediatly. It could have been longer but the Omnitrix had recharged (and yes it had only just timed out as well) to give Ben a new alien and its better to have a no possession guarantee than to gamble it all on some theory.
In Dr Animo and the Mutant Ray Ben was able to take the rim off the Omitrix. Unfortunately this caused the Omnitrix to fuse aliens at random (more on that later).
In Back with a Vengeance Ben was able to access Master Control (by accident, mind you). With Master Control he was able to turn into aliens by simply saying their names. He found this out by saying "Uh oh. Please tell me I didn't bust this thing again. Maybe its just some kind of an upgrade" and as soon as he said that last word, you can guess he turned into Upgrade. He then cycled through some of his aliens. In fact he found out that he didn't have to give a command at all. He only had to think of the alien he wanted and the Omnitrix turned him into that alien. This also gave him some pretty good strategies such as using Ripjaws to save a man from drowning and then jumping out to turn into Stinkfly to bring him back onto the boat. Oh and it also doesn't time out so that's not an issue.
In Benwolf the Omnitrix displayed the ability to scan new alien species that are not already in the Codon Stream in which it gets the aliens from so whenever Ben encounters a new species that the Omnitrix doesn't identify as registered DNA, it will scan that alien species and Ben will be able to use this alien from then on (such as a Loboan)
In Under Wraps its revealed that as long as Ben is in alien form he is protected from mutagens such as Corrodium.
As revealed in Secret of the Omnitrix the Omnitrix has a self destruct mechanism which will destroy not only itself but whoever is wearing it at the time. During the countdown the Omnitrix will start randomly generating shockwaves. When the Omnitrix does detonate, " the explosion will cause an energy ripple that will literally rip apart the universe". But before you start thinking that Ben can use this to kamikaze any victory so to that the battle ends in a tie, there's two problem's with this: 1) Ben is nowhere near that stupid and 2) the Omnitrix has to charge up for a few does to reach this point of destruction.
As revealed in Secret of the Omnitrix, the Omnitrix has a built in homing device which was used to guide a ship through an asteroid belt.
In Secret of the Omnitrix the Omnitrix fired a green energy beam. However, this may have been due to how close Azmuth was to it and the Omnitrix was simply lighting the way.
As I mentioned above, Ben nearly caused a forest to burn down and he used this alien to accomplish such a feat. Though while I used the word 'accidentally', Ben was messing around with Heatblast and actually was trying to destroy trees with his fire blasts. Luckily Heatblast was able to start another forest fire so that the two could snuff each other out.
Now because Heatblast is practically a living flame, he is of course immune to heat and is adempt in pyrokinesis to a certain degree. This of course makes him great for rescuing people from burning buildings which is exactly what he does in the episode Washington B.C. He can also control his own body temperature so as not to harm the people he's saving (yet this doesn't help when he's sitting down in the RV and proceeds to burn the chairs).
In Permanent Retirement Heatblast was used against the Parasites but his flames just made them stronger but he was able to withsatnd the Limax's beatdown giving Gwen and Max enough time to rescue the real victims. When Gwen realized that the Parasites hated water, Heatblast was able to fire an accurate fire blast at some water pipes directly overhead and made the Limax dissolve from the artificial rain.
Because most aquariums use soda-lime glass, the minimum temperature that Heatblast would have had to use to melt and mold the glass is 1000 degrees Celsius to merely soften the glass but around 1500 degrees Celsius would have been required to melt it and this was all done in the span of seconds. Sure one can question that it would have taken much longer to cool down but meh Cartoon Physics.
In Kevin 11 Heatblast was used against Kevin (the intended alien was Four Arms) and Kevin was able to absorb part of Heatblast's energy. Despite Heatblast being 100% Pyronite and Kevin only being mutated into one Kevin held the upper hand for their fight. Luckily when the trains came Heatblast was able to shoot flames and melt the controls for the tracks so that the tracks switched (not sure how that works). Heatblast also showed the ability to encase himself in a vortex of fire so that he could jump onto the train.
In Side Effects despite having a cold Heatblast was able to temporarily utilize cryokiniesis and was able to shoot out beams of cold at his opponent.
Heatblast was then able to create a gigantic ice sculpture to get down to the nuclear core.
Heatblast was able to create an ice ball which froze the bug man completely.
Heatblast was then able to cool down the nuclear core (which was on the verge of a meltdown). A nuclear core can get as hot as 600 degrees Celcius and this is especially impressive considering he only had six seconds to do so.
In Secrets Heatblast was used to help save a city from being attacked by Vilgax's droids. He was able to fly miles in seconds by propelling himself toward the city. Heatblast was then able to shoot fireballs at the droids while airborn. Heatblast was able to slow his descent by propelling fire in front of him.
Heatblast then found himself surrounded by droids (at least 30) and was able to finish them all off in the matter of seconds.
Heatblast was then caught in some kind of energy net and was confronted by Vilgax. When Vilgax stated he was going to retrieve the Omnitrix, Heatblast flared out with all his might and was able to melt the net that was holding him captive.
Heatblast then confronted Vilgax but none of his attacks did any damage. Heatblast was then thrown through several buildings and was just winded but hadn't taken any major damage.
In an attempt to slow Vilgax down Heatblast melted the entire road. Asphalt softens at a temperature of 150 degrees but Heatblast would have had to be creating much higher temperatures when you account for both the surface area and how quickly he accomplished this feat. Too bad it only deterred Vilgax for a few moments.
Heatblast was used to escape Vilgax's self-destructing ship at the end of the episode.
In Midnight Madness a hypnotized Heatblast was used to steal materials for Sublimino. During this state he was easily able to melt a 5 meter hole in the wall. He then threw a fireball at Max and Gwen proving that Ben wasn't in control anymore. The military arrived to arrest him but because he was in a warehouse full of propene tanks, he blew the whole warehouse to pieces.
In Super Alien Hero Buddies Heatblast was used to save Kangaroo Commando. He did this by creting a vortex of fire as high as a two-story building to grab KC from falling to his death and he made sure to regulate the temperature of the flames (because it wouldn't do to have scorch marks on the guy you saved).
He then absorbed the building fire into himself.
He then engaged KC in a 'fake' fight and Heatblast demonstrated the ability to create fireworks (or smokeworks, I guess).
KC then 'tricked' him into falling into the water but its pretty obvious that Heatblast was holding back for the entire fight.
In Monster Weather despite the fact that it was raining, Heatblast was still hot enough to create a flaming sword and cut off a water monster's arm.
He was able to cut off another arm and was able to generate enough heat to evaporate a good portion of it. He was doing pretty well until the water monster smacked him into the ground. Heatblast then spun himself fast enough to go in Gwen's words "supernova hot" so that he could evaporate the giant water monster and turn it into steam.
If Heatblast really was going "supernova hot" he would have been at minimum 100 billion kelvin which is 6,000 times hotter than the sun's core. But Heatblast is obviously not going this hot so I actually calculated the amount of heat he would have to output to evaporate S.A.M. Bear in mind that this is a very, very, very rough approximation; I only measured the main body of S.A.M, excluding its tentacles and the clouds it was able to generate. Also I pixel measured using a person it had absorbed so yeah. Anyway by using pixel measuring I found that S.A.M had an approximate height of 30.6 meters and length of 40.5 meters giving his main body an area of 1239.3 meters squared. Using the spherical volume formula (because the actual formula I wanted to use is for freaking physicists), I found that S.A.M's volume is approximately 34,782 cubic meters. Using an online converter I found that S.A.M's body is made up of approximately 34,782,732,000 grams of water. This allows me to finally use the heat capacity formula which I rearranged to find the amount of heat required to evaporate this much water. The rearranged formula (according to my much smarter friend) is q (heat) = s (specific heat capacity) * m (mass in grams) * deltaT (change in temperature). Therefore q = 4.18 * 34,782,732,000 * 78.5. This means 11,413,257,851,160 Joules of heat energy would be required to bring S.A.M's main body to its boiling point of 100 degrees Celsius and Heatblast was able to accomplish this in 12 seconds. Using another online converter I found that this amount of energy in temperature would be approximately 6,009,822,883 degrees Celcius. While this is not as hot as the aforementioned "supernova" heat, this is still approximately 1,091,702 times hotter than the sun itself and 400 times hotter than the sun's core. Inputting the total Joules into yet another online calculator, I find that the destructive capacity of this attack would be equal to 2,727 tons of TnT.
In Don't Drink the Water a baby Heatblast was used against Hex and while at first his attacks did nothing, Gwen's taunts caused him to go "supernova hot".
This results in Hex's defeat and Heatblast pretty much incinerates the entire cavern protecting the Fountain of Youth (which he also evaporated).
In Big Fat Alien Wedding Heatblast was used against the sludge puppies. He was able to throw a fire ball and them but they regenerated and threw him into and across the lake (and beyond).
After the sludge puppies had him cornered Heatblast went hot enough to harden mud nearly instantaneously (btw this is after he's been soaked in the lake). He used this opportunity to get away.
After this the two sludge puppies merged into one and grabbed Heatblast and put him inside them. Unfortunately it didn't work as they wanted and Heatblast turned so hot that he started turning the mud into molten lava.
This turned the sludge monster into stone (Not really. It just dried them so much that they appeared to be stone) and Heatblast just punched his way out.
In Secret of the Omnitrix Heatblast displayed the ability to throw fire disks at his opponent.
Heatblast then generated a constant streak of flames which were rising in heat to overload Animo's DNA machine.
In Victor: The Spoils Heatblast was used to fight Victor. He was agile enough to dodge Victor's attacks and was able to use Fire Punch by heating up his fists. He finished the fight by melting a tank over Victor's head. Even then Victor was still able to move but thankfully Gwen used a cooling spell.
In The Beginning of the End Heatblast broke into a cave by surrounding himself in fire so much that he looked like a comet.
In The Beginning of the End: Part 1 Heatblast was used to fight a supercharged Vilgax. He was able to dodge Vilgax's energy blasts and produced a flamethrower that was dodged by Vilgax. Heatblast dodged a continuosu stream of energy blasts before finally hitting Vilgax with a circular wall of flames. Unfortunately Vilgax is like the Terminator in the sense that no matter how hard you try nothing seems to work against him. After nearly the entire human population became Esoterica, Heatblast produced a flamethrower so hot, it turned the ground Vilgax was standing on into molten lava.
In A Jolt from the Past Heatblast was used to chase after a criminal. His flight allowed him to scale at least a 10 story building before catching up to the speeding car. He also had to dodge several laser blasts being fired at him. He finally ended it by using his flamethrowers to literally burn the rubber off of one of the tyres.
In Of Predators and Prey: Part 1 Heatblast was used to pursue Khyber. He did catch up to him but was rammed by Crabdozer so hard that he was sent flying through several signs into a brick wall. He realised he wasn't getting anywhere and quick changed into Ball Weevil.
In Malefactor Heatblast was used to save a kid from a giant wooden bell that weighed 3,000 pounds or 1,360 kg and Heatblast was able to stop it using his bare hands. He then fought Crabdozer but that didn't go so well and Heatblast had to quick change into Armodrillo.
Later in the episode Heatblast was able to fly from one side of the city to the other in mere seconds. He was able to easily fly faster than Hypnotick who could keep up with Big Chill so Heatblast is at the very least faster than Big Chill.
In Store 23 Heatblast was used to fight Dimension 23's SevenSeven and Tetrax. He was able to tank laser fire and used his pyrokinesis to completely cover SevenSeven's suit in flames. He then recreated his scene in Secrets by melting the road so much that Tetrax actually fell into a pool of tar.
In Showdown Part 1 Heatblast was used to put out a fire from a seemingly burning vehicle. He successfully absorbed some of the fire but was unable to finish due to Pakmar driving away. Heatblast easily summoned his 'rock' to catch up to Pakmar's truck and when Pakmar's truck went into the river, Heatblast demonstrated that he was still able to use his fire powers (albeit to a lesser extent) while saving Pakmar from drowning.
In Stuck on You Heatblast fought Khyber who had equipped a slimebiote to use the nemetrix for him. With Khyber's Crabdozer armor Heatblast's attacks did barely anything to phase him but Heatblast did have slightly better luck in hand to hand combat. Unfortunately Khyber still had the upper hand but luckily Blukic and Driba teleported Ben and Rook away just in time.
As shown in Kevin 11 Heatblast is made out of energy which makes him vulnerable to opponents who absorb energy like Kevin.
In Side Effects Ben's cold essentially froze his entire body rendering him unable to utilize pyrokiniesis.
As shown in The Visitor Heatblast can be soaked to the point of not being able to create a spark which temporarily shuts down his fire powers. Though this is likely PIS as in Monster Weather Heatblast was not only able to function while it was raining but he also got slammed into the ground by a water monster and he was only weaker than normal (unless you want to try and convince me that a fire hydrant has more water than a ****ing weather monster).
During one particular camping trip he had the misfortune (or fortune depending on how you look at it) of finding a watch that could scan aliens and transform him into said aliens. This watch was dubbed the Omnitrix and Ben's first attempt using it nearly caused an entire forest to be burned down. Well when Ben did eventually figure it out, he started using his new found abilities to become a superhero and actually help people instead of in his own words "makes things worse".
Strengths and Abilities
Ben himself has shown to be a quick and creative thinker as shown when he uses one of the golf clubs in his cart to getaway from the Limax or when he uses his grandpa's cold medicine to lure the bugs away from the RV.
Ben was able to lift and fire Max's giant gun to knock Vilgax out while he was distracted.
Ben is also quite intuitive as he knew just what to do to reach the sword of Au Ekhulah in Ultimate Weapon.
Ben also has a hoverboard that he can use and as shown in Tough Luck was able to scale a 100-meter tower.
In Game Over Ben was adept in swordsmanship.Though his abilities had been enhanced in the video game so its difficult to tell if Ben actually is adept in swordsmanship and even then Ben doesn't actually own a sword in the real world anyway.
In The Unaturals Ben proved to be excellent at baseball and had excellent reflexes. He was able to hit a ball from one of the world's best pitchers (not a hyperbole. It was a robot that had the stats of all the best baseball players in the world and the entire team were actually better than any team in baseball history).
In Ready to Rumble Ben is shown to be extremely observant. From just one sentence where its heard that the mob is "going to turn her into an end table", Ben realized that they were hiding out at an old lumber mill. He got this by Max saying he wanted to see said lumber mill at the start of the episode and this is impressive considering this would be something Ben would classify as "boring" or "lame" and not pay any attention to whatsoever (However when asked "how many guys do you manage [how many aliens do you have]?" Ben said 10 when at the time he had 16).
In Secret of the Omnitrix Ben was able to quickly figure out how to fly a gyro pod and this is impressive due to gyro pods not even being made for humans. They're made for gelatinous beings such as Gluto.
In the Omniverse episode Trouble Helix 11 year old Ben was completely unharmed after being crushed under rubble.
Weaknesses
Ben is rather useless without the Omnitrix. Sure he's got a couple tricks up his sleeve though he generally relies on the Omnitrix for all things combat related and if it malfunctions then he has to look for alternatives using the resources on hand.
As shown in Midnight Madness Ben is vulnerable to hypnosis and this affects his aliens as well. Fortunately the sound of the Omnitrix timing out snaps him out of the trance until he falls asleep again.

Omnitrix
Throughout the series the Omnitrix has been called "The most powerful device in the universe" and while there have been multiple incarnations of the Omnitrix over the years, each being more improved over the last; for now, I'm just sticking to the Original Omnitrix that appeared in the first series. I'll cover the aliens used only in the first series as well (but don't worry I'll cover Ben's arsenal in the succeeding series' eventually). Anyway the Original Omnitrix was a powerful weapon to say the least and was able to transform Ben into 10 different aliens. However there was a catch. This incarnation of the Omnitrix had a very strict time limit to say the least going as low as a few minutes of action. Though the more consistent limit is about 5-10 minutes (which includes Ben's usage off-screen). However the recharge period can be as short as a couple of minutes as shown in Secrets. Of course Ben can also time out willingly as he does when he's normally finished most fights and/or decides to show off.
As shown in Kevin 11 the Omnitrix has a failsafe to prevent anyone from removing it forcefully. If anyone does like Kevin, it will generate a shockwave capable of destroying an entire bridge. Vilgax was actually harmed by the shockwave when he tried to take it.
As shown in The Alliance any time Ben activates the Omnitrix, it can be tracked by those with the right technology.

In Secret of the Omnitrix the Omnitrix fired a green energy beam. However, this may have been due to how close Azmuth was to it and the Omnitrix was simply lighting the way.
Heatblast
I think its a good idea to start with the very first alien Ben turned into: Heatblast.
Now because Heatblast is practically a living flame, he is of course immune to heat and is adempt in pyrokinesis to a certain degree. This of course makes him great for rescuing people from burning buildings which is exactly what he does in the episode Washington B.C. He can also control his own body temperature so as not to harm the people he's saving (yet this doesn't help when he's sitting down in the RV and proceeds to burn the chairs).
In Permanent Retirement Heatblast was used against the Parasites but his flames just made them stronger but he was able to withsatnd the Limax's beatdown giving Gwen and Max enough time to rescue the real victims. When Gwen realized that the Parasites hated water, Heatblast was able to fire an accurate fire blast at some water pipes directly overhead and made the Limax dissolve from the artificial rain.
In Tourist Trap Heatblast was used to stop Megawhatt and his gigantic robot from destroying the dam. Though Megawhatt's response was to just punch a gigantic hole in the dam that it caused Heatblast to lose his balance; forcing him to run down the steep wall before sliding down to create enough friction to slow down. This accidentally caused Heatblast to discover a new ability in which he could surf on pieces of earth to temporarily grant him the power of flight.
Heatblast then engaged in combat with Megawhatt but was completely thrown off by Megawhatt's ability to create an electromagnetic field which caused him to miss his target completely and hit ground. Megawhatt then punched Heatblast with presumably the same force he used to punch a hole in the dam. Unfortunately the only case of deliberately destroying an otherwise sound dam was Operation Chastise which involved putting a bomb on the other side of the dam (where the water is) so that the amount of force plus the sheer volume of water overcame it.
After Gwen soaked Megawhatt with a fire hose and distracted it, Heatblast was able to create a gigantic ball of plasma to destroy and overload the robot's circuits (I think?) and temporarily stun Megawhatt.
Although this just caused the army of Megawhatts to get angry and rush at him all at once only for Heatblast to use instant transmission and get onto the platform that they originally were on.
Of course Ben being Ben continued to taunt the Megawhatt army and this was able to trick them into rushing into a gigantic fish bowl. Heatblast was then able to melt and mold the glass so that the Megawhatt army couldn't escape.
In Kevin 11 Heatblast was used against Kevin (the intended alien was Four Arms) and Kevin was able to absorb part of Heatblast's energy. Despite Heatblast being 100% Pyronite and Kevin only being mutated into one Kevin held the upper hand for their fight. Luckily when the trains came Heatblast was able to shoot flames and melt the controls for the tracks so that the tracks switched (not sure how that works). Heatblast also showed the ability to encase himself in a vortex of fire so that he could jump onto the train.
In The Alliance Heatblast was used to try and stop a landslide (the intended alien was Four Arms). He tried to melt rock but as it turns out rock is a really good insulator of heat so when that failed he opted for a different idea and melted a bunch of ambulances (conveniently parked in a line)) so that they would melt into a wall to stop the landslide from hurting anyone (well apart from anyone in need of an ambulance).
Though the direction of the rocks was just redirected and Heatblast had to literally burn down a bridge to prevent any casualties.
Heatblast isn't given any time to rest because Rojo (merged with Vilgax's drone) picks him up and throws him into a truck before spamming lasers on him. It might be of note that these are the same lasers that destroyed two police cars and a roof but because of Heatblast's physiology, it's not really a durability feat. Heatblast tricks Rojo into charging at him before exloding the gasoline truck near her, throwing her up into the air.
In Side Effects despite having a cold Heatblast was able to temporarily utilize cryokiniesis and was able to shoot out beams of cold at his opponent.
In Secrets Heatblast was used to help save a city from being attacked by Vilgax's droids. He was able to fly miles in seconds by propelling himself toward the city. Heatblast was then able to shoot fireballs at the droids while airborn. Heatblast was able to slow his descent by propelling fire in front of him.
In Midnight Madness a hypnotized Heatblast was used to steal materials for Sublimino. During this state he was easily able to melt a 5 meter hole in the wall. He then threw a fireball at Max and Gwen proving that Ben wasn't in control anymore. The military arrived to arrest him but because he was in a warehouse full of propene tanks, he blew the whole warehouse to pieces.

He did this by creting a vortex of fire as high as a two-story building to grab KC from falling to his death and he made sure to regulate the temperature of the flames (because it wouldn't do to have scorch marks on the guy you saved).
In Monster Weather despite the fact that it was raining, Heatblast was still hot enough to create a flaming sword and cut off a water monster's arm.
In Don't Drink the Water a baby Heatblast was used against Hex and while at first his attacks did nothing, Gwen's taunts caused him to go "supernova hot".
In Big Fat Alien Wedding Heatblast was used against the sludge puppies. He was able to throw a fire ball and them but they regenerated and threw him into and across the lake (and beyond).
In Victor: The Spoils Heatblast was used to fight Victor. He was agile enough to dodge Victor's attacks and was able to use Fire Punch by heating up his fists. He finished the fight by melting a tank over Victor's head. Even then Victor was still able to move but thankfully Gwen used a cooling spell.
In Store 23 Heatblast was used to fight Dimension 23's SevenSeven and Tetrax. He was able to tank laser fire and used his pyrokinesis to completely cover SevenSeven's suit in flames. He then recreated his scene in Secrets by melting the road so much that Tetrax actually fell into a pool of tar.
Weaknesses
Obviously opponents who feed on/are immune to fire or heat are going to give Heatblast a rough time. Also he can lose to other Pyronites if they have more mastery in their powers or are more adept in combat as shown in Kevin 11.
As shown in Tourist Trap Heatblast can be affected by electromagnetic fields (I think? It wasn't really made clear) which can throw him off balance.
As shown in Tourist Trap Heatblast can be affected by electromagnetic fields (I think? It wasn't really made clear) which can throw him off balance.
As shown in Kevin 11 Heatblast is made out of energy which makes him vulnerable to opponents who absorb energy like Kevin.
In Side Effects Ben's cold essentially froze his entire body rendering him unable to utilize pyrokiniesis.
As shown in The Visitor Heatblast can be soaked to the point of not being able to create a spark which temporarily shuts down his fire powers. Though this is likely PIS as in Monster Weather Heatblast was not only able to function while it was raining but he also got slammed into the ground by a water monster and he was only weaker than normal (unless you want to try and convince me that a fire hydrant has more water than a ****ing weather monster).
Wildmutt
This was the second alien Ben used, although you could say he was still on his free trial. Ben didn't have any initial motive for transforming into Wildmutt. He just wanted to find out how the Omnitrix worked. Regardless when he did, he was able to sense Gwen who was trying to spank him with a stick and dodge by jumping several meters into the sky and landing on the RV. He then was able to run off and detect a robot and destroy said robot. Though he doesn't have any eyes, his other senses are remarkable. He was easily able to swing around the forest like a spidermonkey (not yet), as well as dodge incoming laser fire and destroy the bastard who was firing at him. Though he mustn't have gotten very far because Gwen (who only had average human powers at the time) still caught up to him and was able to destroy the other robot.
In Permanent Retirement Wildmutt was strong enough to throw a dumpster through a security fence at some aliens called the Limax. Even when empty a small dumpster can have a mass of 250 kg. Already that means Wildmutt is strong enough to exert 2450 Newtons of force and that's not even taking into account the amount of trash in the dumpster.
Wildmutt was then used to drop down a trap door which the Limax created as well as make sure Gwen made the trip safely. He was able to fall 6.5 seconds before grabbing onto the wall and landing on the ground safely.
After taking a beatdown from said Limax, Wildmutt straight up tackled it into the cave wall, then threw the Limax into another wall and tackled it so hard into another wall that rocks started to fall from the ceiling.
Wildmutt was then able to sense where the real victims were and crashed through a solid rock wall before Ben timed out.
In Last Laugh Wildmutt was able to easily overpower the circus freak trio. He was strong enough to drag Frightwig along (whose hair had previously broken into a wall and lifted an ATM machine) and fast enough to dodge Acid Breath's... breath (which was easily able to dissolve a car). He was easily able to pin two of the three down (Thumbskull retreated).
Wildmutt was doing pretty well until Zombozo showed up and then Ben's coulrophobia kicked in and he didn't fight back when Zombozo was beating the crap out of him. Then Wildmutt retreated but the circuis freak trio were able to pull down an entire tower on top of him yet even with this Wildmutt stayed conscious and timed out. The fact that Ben still was able to get out relatively ok meant that Wildmutt had sustained no major injuries from the fight.
In Lucky Girl Wildmutt attempted to save a couple of construction workers from falling to their deaths and in doing so he scaled a two story building in 40 seconds. The only reason he wasn't able to was because before he could reach them Gwen's luck charm (or as I like to call it BULL****! charm) made an elevator push him up to an elevation far higher than the building itself. Wildmutt came down but went through several platforms, was able to get a hold of a rope but was then hit by a hollow steel cylinder before he finally landed in a cement mixer.
In Truth Wildmutt was used in an attempt to settle down two Vulpimancers. Unfortunately Vulpimancers don't like talking and gave chase. Wildmutt was able to outrun them despite bearemore less mature than they were. Wildmutt then continued to swing on chains in an attempt to get away from them though he did eventually fall onto the meat grinder and would have died if it weren't for Phil.
In Framed Ben used Wildmutt to try and save a cable car full of people that had been hijacked by Kevin using Upgrade. Though he lost to Upgrade's technology manipulation, it was thanks to Kevin's arrogance (leaving early when the stage was set) and Max's quick thinking that he was able to stop the cable car from going under.
In Tough Luck Wildmutt was used to fight Hex but quickly got blasted into one of the nearby stalls.
Wildmutt was then able to destroy a stone creature with one punch.
In Midnight Madness Wildmutt was used to stop two thieves and he did this by grabbing onto a street lamp to swing himself into the next story. Unfortunately he got double teamed and when the police got involved he was forced to run away.
In Merry Christmas Wildmutt was used to trick the guards into thinking he was a reindeer (they're not that bright) and when they eventually realized something wasn't right, he engaged them in combat and easily defeated them. He was however caught off guard by the train's limb extensions attacking him.
In Ben 10 vs the Negative 10: Part 2 Wildmutt was used to take on a mutant rat 2 times bigger than himself.
Wildmutt then had to take out several security drones and when Max blew up the bridge he was easily able to jump the distance.
In Prisoner 775 is Missing Wildmutt was able to track Prisoner 775 ( a chameleon based alien who heavily relied on stealth) using his strong senses. However when he actually had to fight Prisoner 775 well Wildmutt got his arse kicked.
In Have I Got a Deal for You Wildmutt was used to catch up to the Screegit (intended alien was Fasttrack). He was still able to leap over cars.
In Of Predators and Prey: Part 1 Wildmutt was used to fight Buglizard, a physically larger foe. Wildmutt was able to ram into Buglizard so hard that they both went flying through the wall. Wildmutt was then able to suplex Buglizard and would've won the fight had Khyber not cheated and used an extremely high pitched whistle. This was another example of the Worf Effect taking place as the episode was trying to use the fallacy that Ben was useless without outside help.
In Evil's Encore Wildmutt was able to rip through a sack and used his senses to find the captured Plumbers. He was then able to free them by biting through the metal cables.
In Return to Forever Wildmutt fought the Forever Twins and easily defeated them. Earlier in the episode Rook had trouble fighting them yet Wildmutt took them down with little effort.
In Something Zombozo This Way Comes Wildmutt was able to determine that 'Zombozo' was actually just Jerry from inhuman resources in a suit.
In And Then There Were None Wildmutt fought Eon so that No Watch Ben could escape. Wildmutt was easily able to dodge a close range blade slashing at him.
In And Then There Were Ben No Watch Be used Wildmutt to fight Gwen 10 as XLR8. Despite being inexperienced with the form he was easily able to trip her up and cause a time out.
In No Honor Among Bros Wildmutt investigated Fistrick's old hangout and was able to quickly jump out of the way when Fistrick's car came crashing through the wall.
In Fight at the Museum Wildmutt pursued Subdora who had stolen some sacred orb and quickly defeated her.
In Permanent Retirement Wildmutt was strong enough to throw a dumpster through a security fence at some aliens called the Limax. Even when empty a small dumpster can have a mass of 250 kg. Already that means Wildmutt is strong enough to exert 2450 Newtons of force and that's not even taking into account the amount of trash in the dumpster.
Using the equation Vf = Vi + at. Vf = 0 + 9.8ms^-2 x 6.5s. This means Wildmutt was travelling at a velocity of 63.7ms^-1. Using the equation d = vt + 1/2 at^2. d = 63.7x6.5 + 4.9 x 6.5^2. This means Wildmutt dropped a distance of 621.075 metres.
When down in the hole Wildmutt was able to use his enhanced senses to find where a Limax organism was and grab it before Gwen was attacked.
He also got suplexed into the ground by said Limax.
In Last Laugh Wildmutt was able to easily overpower the circus freak trio. He was strong enough to drag Frightwig along (whose hair had previously broken into a wall and lifted an ATM machine) and fast enough to dodge Acid Breath's... breath (which was easily able to dissolve a car).

In Fight at the Museum Wildmutt pursued Subdora who had stolen some sacred orb and quickly defeated her.
Weaknesses
As shown in Side Effects Ben's cold also made Wildmutt sick. This rendered his gills? Well whatever they are they were covered in mucus and rendered Wildmutt unable to sense anything. This caused him to constantly crash into things and he was no help at all.
In Truth Wildmutt had trouble facing members of his own kind. It's safe to assume he would also have trouble facing opponents similar to himself.
As shown in truth Wildmutt is weak to sound waves of high frequencies which was demonstrated by Phil's 'sonic pitch whistle'. This was later exploited in Of Predators and Prey: Part 1.

Diamondhead
Diamondhead is a petrosapien from the planet Petropia. Ben's first time using him... could have been better. Though its a good thing Diamondhead's specialty is endurance because he got laser blasted into an RV which blew up, then got crushed by a robot who jumped 10 meters into the sky and fell on him, then thrown into another vehicle, had a tree fall on top of him, took another laser blast into a house which blew up, before Ben had the bright idea of using his arms to reflect the lasers back at the robot, head-shotting it.
In Hunter Diamondhead
was able to accurately shoot six cans out of the sky with six diamonds as well
as shoot several bullseyes, a few metres away from him. He is also able to
shoot diamonds at a cactus effectively slicing it in quarters.
Later Diamondhead was used to fight the mercenary SixSix. He nearly beat him as well (and all he did was take a ride on
his jetpack) until Kraab catched up to them and threw him into a wall. Then
both SixSix and Kraab double-teamed him and would have lost if Tetrax hadn’t
knocked both mercenaries unconscious with a smoke grenade. Tetrax then taught
Ben a personal lesson in utilizing strategy (by giving him a lesson in pain).
Ben kept trying to attack Tetrax but it was no use and eventually he timed out.
In Secrets Diamondhead showed that he was capable of making diamonds grow out of the ground to stop some thieves.
Diamondhead was then able to easily slice through one of the crook's guns. When the crook tried to escape he simply escalated more diamonds in front of him.
When the crook's partner tried to use the hostage, Diamond simply turned his arm into that of a blade which was enough for the crook to surrender.
After XLR8 failed the Omnitrix turned Ben into Diamondhead who attacked Vilgax by throwing diamonds at him but they shattered upon contact of Vilgax's skin. Diamondhead then engaged Vilgax in hand-to-hand combat but more diamonds shattered. Vilgax then picked Diamondhead up and slammed him into the ground. The Omnitrix then turned Ben into Ghostfreak.
In Framed Diamondhead was used to protect Gwen from Pyronite Kevin. While I could use Heatblast's heat feats, there is a problem with this: Kevin is only a tenth as strong as Heatblast would've been at the time of absorption and has likely gotten stronger. While Heatblast also has gotten stronger (possibly), there's no telling how strong Kevin is as a pyronite.
After an exchange with Kevin, Kevin transformed into Stinkfly to get away while the military charged into the warehouse. While Ben failed to convince the military he showed that he was able to transform his hand into that of a claw.
Don't worry he didn't kill anyone. He just used the diamonds to block the laser fire and jam the laser rifles. After being hit in the chest by another laser, Diamondhead threw some diamonds sharp enough to take out a small bridge.
When more people were firing at him Diamondhead grew large diamonds from the ground to block their path.
He then used this opportunity to escape from the military.
In Grudge Match Diamondhead was used to battle Kevin 11. Kevin threw him through a windmill but sustained no substantial injury and was even able to throw the propeller back towards Kevin.
While he and Kevin were charging at each other, they got abducted. Diamondhead was then forced to fight some duel-wielding robot and was strong enough to stop it in it's tracks.
When the robot grew two extra sword-arms (so quad-wielding?), Diamondhead was able to dodge its attacks and showed that he was actually quite agile.
Diamondhead continued to dodge the robot's attacks until he had an opening to throw his projectiles but they broke on impact of the swords. Despite this Diamondhead was able to slice off on of the robot's limbs with a single strike.
Diamondhead was then able to block its other sword strike with his arms.
Diamondhead then slid under the robot's sword swings and sliced both his legs of him in a single strike.
In Back with a Vengeance Diamondhead was used to send Vilgax flying back with enough force that Vilgax actually had to embed his claws into sheets of metal to prevent himself from falling off.
He then engaged Kevin 11 in combat and held the upper hand most of the time. Diamondhead was easily able to dodge Kevin's attacks and retaliate with his own. He then tricked Kevin into falling off the cart however Kevin was able to use his tail to bring Diamondhead down with him.
In A Change of Face Diamondhead was used to pursue a stolen truck. He easily 'flew' (for lack of a better term) across the road using diamond sculptures in the right places.
He was eventually able to slash out the truck's tires from several meters in the air.
In Under Wraps Diamondhead engaged the Mummy in battle and although he was able to impale it, it did pretty much nothing. Diamondhead than start summoning dozens of diamond shards out of the ground to attack it but the Mummy just dodged them.
Diamondhead did prove agile enough to dodge the Mummy's attacks (and this is the same Mummy that was able to keep up with XLR8) before grabbing one of its bandages and reeled it in to punch it into a wall.
In The Unaturals Diamondhead was used against the Squires and created a gigantic diamond sculpture for them while he was underground.
Diamondhead then fought and destroyed dozens of robot droids and lassoed a bunch of them together to destroy a gigantic metal door to allow the others to escape.
He then jumped up and performed several front flips before creating and firing dozens of shards and destroyed every robot in the general vicinity.
He then encased himself in crystal so that he could endure a gigantic point blank explosion.
Here's the explosion from outside to give you a better understanding of what he endured.
In Big Fat Alien Wedding Diamondhead protected Joel from Camille's ex-boyfriend. He tried to throw diamond projectiles at him but they just sank into Camille's ex-boyfriend's sludgish body. Diamondhead was then thrown through several pillars.
When Camille's ex started to suffocate him, Diamondhead punched him into the water which was the sludge puppies' weakness.
In Ben 10 vs the Negative 10: Part 1 Diamondhead was used to slow down the Rust Bucket. He showed that he could grow diamonds out of his shoes so that he had extra grip when walking on top of the Rust Bucket at 300mph (possibly more as Cooper said he had already enhanced the Turbo Boosters past their limit).
After a crystal wall failed to even slow down the Rust Bucket, Diamondhead created a diamond anchor that could slow the Rust Bucket down (as well as destroy a good portion of the road).
Oh by the way the Rust Bucket was able to get from Fort Knox to Seattle in a matter of minutes. The distance between Fort Knox is 2,356.2 miles (3791.936333 km). Unfortunately due to the background and the plot conflicting (Trying to stop infiltration of a plumber base so need to get there quickly yet the background already shows that its night in which case the base should've already been infiltrated and the bad guy should be long gone by now) its hard to tell how long it actually took the Rust Bucket to reach Seattle. However the Rust Bucket actually does create a sonic boom going at these speeds so it must have been going at at least Mach 1.1
Diamondhead was then used to stop an elevator from falling to prevent Max, Gwen and Cooper from dying.
He was then able to elevate the group up through the elevator shaft by creating his own crystal 'elevator'.
Later he was confronted by Dr. Animo whose mutant bat shattered him with supersonic howls. Fortunately Diamondhead displayed the ability to create diamond that didn't break so easily when attacked with sound waves.
Diamondhead was than able to summon enough crystals to throw Animo and his bat off the top of the skyscraper.
Oh and he also has hidden blades up his arm.
Unfortunately the Omnitrix decided to time out.
In Destroy All Aliens Diamondhead was able to survive going skydiving without a parachute. Though its difficult to tell how high up he was, we do know that the ship he fell out of was in orbit at the time of the incident.
In Vengeance of Vilgax Diamondhead was used to fight Vilgax and it seemed that he had gotten a bit of an upgrade over the years. Diamondhead had gained such mastery over his abilities that he was able to make his diamond projectiles explode and was able to summon massive crystalline structures and telekinetically move them wherever he wanted. Naturally this is how he was easily able to defeat Vilgax. Anyone remember that time where Diamondhead couldn't even hurt Vilgax? Yeah good times.
In Singlehanded Diamondhead's hand was able to be used as a shield against Sunder's energy axe. Bear in mind that just minutes before Sunder's energy axe was able to effortlessly cut through a car hood.
In In Charm's Way Diamondhead was used to fight Kevin and effortlessly defeated him as he was able to encase Kevin in diamond.
In The Secret of Chromastone Diamondhead was shattered because he was acting as a sort of 'vessel' for Chromastone's DNA sample Sugilite. After Sugilite died again it was up to Chromastone to revive the entire race of the Petrosapiens which he did!
In Vendetta Diamondhead fought Ragnarok where he displayed the ability to absorb energy just like Chromastone and reflect it just... like Chromastone.
In Basic Training Diamondhead was used to fight Brannigan and displayed that Plumbers weapons didn't exactly work on him.
In Couples Retreat Diamondhead was used to fight Darkstar. He was first thrown out of a skyscraper (and presumably survived the fall). He also demonstrated the ability to create crystal shield out of nothing though these shields weren't that effective against Darkstar who was nearly all-powerful in Ledgerdomain.
In Trouble Helix Diamondhead was used to fight Malware. He was able to easily dodge a close range laser blast before hitting Malware into some pyramid thing. He was then able to jump up and tank another laser blast. He tanked another one and Malware tried to physically remove the Omnitrix from his body but Diamondhead was able to encase the Omnitrix in crystal to prevent Malware from getting to it. He then encased Malware completely in crystal, defeating him.
In It Was Them Diamondhead was used to fight Slamworm. His crystalline projectiles were ineffective and Slamworm soon had Diamondhead in his mouth. Diamondhead was strong enough to hold off Slamwrm's jaws and was able to generate a sword before jamming it into Slamworm's mouth. Unfortunately Slamworm bit through it and Diamondhead had to regenerate. Diamondhead then created crystalline structures which trapped Slamworm before generating shields to hold off Slamworm's acid.
In Gone Fishin' Diamondhead was used to fight Captain Kork and made full use of his crystalline structures and projectiles to fight him while also being durable enough to withstand Captain Kork's energy hook. Diamondhead also proved agile enough to jump over a pirate robot and was strong enough to crush iron bars.
In Arrested Development Diamondhead was able to tank a laser fired at him from hundreds of meters in the air and reflect it without even noticing. This caused his assailant to get sucked into Dimension 12.
In Ben Again Diamondhead was used to fight Eon where his crystalline structure was durable enough to withstand Eon's time blade. Diamondhead then turned his own arm into a blade to fence against Eon.
Later in the same episode Diamondhead was able to create and elevate a crystalline structure from the ground to get him to go higher up.
In Rad Diamondhead was used to pull the Grackleflint onto Rad's ship, the Lovely Duck.
In Evil's Encore Diamondhead fought three security droids, tanking their laser blasts before punching through one of them and steering it to blast through another one. Diamondhead took down the last security droid with relative ease.
In Collect This Diamondhead was able to generate two ramps to prevent a gasoline truck from falling (and presumably exploding as they do in fiction) and was actually able to upright it.
In Blukic and Driba Go to Area 51 Diamondhead was able to form a crystalline bridge using only his right arm. This bridge was able to easily support Thunderpig. He then easily defeated Luhley by catching her.
In Clyde Five Diamondhead fought Clyde who was using the Cincotrix. He was easily able to generate crystalline structures to both defend himself and send Clyde flying into a nearby building. He was also able to quickly generate a crystalline mountain to protect a building from being hit by a truck. Diamondhead also demonstrated the ability to use his crystalline structures as transportation and by doing this Diamondhead was able to keep up with Clyde who was being rocket propelled. Unfortunately the Omnitrix timed out.
In The Ballad of Mr. Baumann Diamondhead easily defeated Vulkanus by taking full advantage of his crystalline structures and projecting diamond projectiles onto the ground to increase his mobility. At least one of his crystalline structures were able to withstand a large explosion.
In Malgax Attacks Diamondhead fought Malgax and was able to turn his arms into swords which were able to block Malgax's laser swords. Malgax eventually was able to cut through Diamondhead's arms and then punched Diamondhead with enough force to send him from Galvan Prime to its moon Galvan B. Of course after tanking that hit, the Omnitrix timed out.
In Destroy All Aliens Diamondhead was able to survive going skydiving without a parachute. Though its difficult to tell how high up he was, we do know that the ship he fell out of was in orbit at the time of the incident.
In Singlehanded Diamondhead's hand was able to be used as a shield against Sunder's energy axe. Bear in mind that just minutes before Sunder's energy axe was able to effortlessly cut through a car hood.
In In Charm's Way Diamondhead was used to fight Kevin and effortlessly defeated him as he was able to encase Kevin in diamond.
In The Secret of Chromastone Diamondhead was shattered because he was acting as a sort of 'vessel' for Chromastone's DNA sample Sugilite. After Sugilite died again it was up to Chromastone to revive the entire race of the Petrosapiens which he did!

In Evil's Encore Diamondhead fought three security droids, tanking their laser blasts before punching through one of them and steering it to blast through another one. Diamondhead took down the last security droid with relative ease.
Weaknesses
As shown in Ben 10 vs the Negative 10: Part 1 Diamondhead is weak to intense sound waves. Though he is still able to tank a few of them; he is visibly cracked after doing so. However, Diamondhead can create structures that tank sound waves better than he does.
XLR8
XLR8 is a Kineceleran from the planet Kinet. While Ben initially transformed into him off-screen, we do see that he ran all the way back to Bellwood to wedgie his bullies and to rush off into the distance (distracting Gwen and his grandpa), and pack up the rest of the campsite in less than two seconds all while he ran off in a different direction each time. You know the tornado scene in Flash VS Quicksilver? Yeah, XLR8 basically did what Quicksilver did to pack up the campsite.
In The Krakken XLR8 ran fast enough to run on water.
Though he had a bit of trouble with its friction-less surface, XLR8 quickly composed himself and was able to save four people from the Krakken. He then ran fast enough to create a tornado to scare the Krakken off.
In Many Happy Returns XLR8 was used to fight Looma Red Wind and let's just say he was on the receiving end of a curb-stomp battle. Looma tanked all his hits and was always able to send him flying. She ended it by throwing him into the side of a building.
In Malefactor XLR8 fought Malware where he dodged Malware's lasers with ease until the Omnitrix timed him out.
In Ben Again XLR8 was used to fight Eon where he was easily able to dodge Eon's time blasts.
In Store 23 XLR8 was used to fight Dimension 23's version of SevenSeven and was able to go fast enough to land several hits on SevenSeven without being hit once. He let Ben 23 take all the glory but in doing so Ben 23 got a bomb stuck to his arm. To prevent Ben 23 from being blown up XLR8 raced to Ben 23 and ran through all the possible codes (I could be wrong but using the internet I found that the total number of combinations would be 49) so that the bomb would detach from Ben 23's arm and this was when he only had 13 seconds to do so. With one second left XLR8 then raced with enough velocity to indirectly crack a window and put the bomb on SevenSeven before racing back to safety.
In The Frogs of War: Part 2 XLR8 was able to run so fast that he was able to create a vortex strong enough to lift a To'kustar.
In Rules of Engagement XLR8 was used to fight Fistina. His speed allowed him to effortlessly dodge her rocket-powered missile and ended the fight by creating a vortex so powerful he beheaded her and her head ended up being embedded in a concrete wall. He wasn't even trying as he just wanted to "vortex all the air around you until you lose consciousness".
In Mud If Thicker Than Water XLR8 was used to catch up to a motorbike gang, dodge the lasers fired at him and then disarm them though Liam was able to get away,
In Collect This XLR8 was able to deliver a pristine condition outfit of his to Collectimus in exactly 3 minutes. This involved getting to his house, going through every single T-shirt of his, thinking back on each and every time he ruined it and when that failed, he checked Plumbers HQ, finally found a mint-condition T-shirt and with 4 seconds left to spare he was able to deliver the shirt.
In The Vengers XLR8 saved everyone in a burning building in the time it took for Will Harangue to interview Captain Nemesis.
In The Ballad of Mr. Baumann XLR8 carried Mr. Baumann from Undertown to his store in Bellwood while Mr Baumann also had two handfuls of rocks in his pocket.
In Secret of Dos Santos XLR8 was able to find the temple of the sky with Skurd's help. Upon doing so he quickly ran back to Kai and brought her to the exact same spot above the village in a matter of seconds.
In A New Dawn XLR8 fought Vigax from several centuries ago and was easily able to create a vortex of water before the Omnitrix started to time out.
XLR8's mobility is significantly decreased when he is in the air.
In The Krakken XLR8 ran fast enough to run on water.
Though he had a bit of trouble with its friction-less surface, XLR8 quickly composed himself and was able to save four people from the Krakken. He then ran fast enough to create a tornado to scare the Krakken off.
However because all the tornado really did was gather water and scare the Krakken and there is no substantial damage to the boat which was RIGHT NEXT TO IT. XLR8 most likely formed a F0 tornado which cause minimal damage but still has the capacity to kill. Going by the Fujita scale, this means XLR8 was creating air currents of at least 40mph on water. He also fought the Krakken but it seemed that his fast kicks and punches more annoyed the Krakken than did anything substantial. Yet even as the Omnitrix was timing out, XLR8 was still able to run across the lake to the other boat (but timed out before Ben could actually make it on the boat. Yet even as Ben timed out he was going fast enough to BOUNCE on the water (which probably gave him some nasty burns and bruises).
Basically XLR8 was going so fast that when Ben timed out, his velocity was too much for the water molecules to get out of the way in time. In fact this is put into practice when one skims stones on water. The stones are moving so fast that they will bounce until their velocity decreases and the water molecules are given enough time to get out of the way. The minimum velocity for skimming stones is a few kilometers an hour but it would be substantially more for a 40kg young boy. Essentially Ben was moving with enough force that he pushed the water down which also propelled him into the air.
Though we don't see it according to Ben, XLR8 was able to put hundreds of people back in their condos in "a few minutes".
In Kevin 11 XLR8 was able to create a vortex that moved so fast it lifted a guy (who weighed at least 100kg) all the to the ceiling of the arcade (which was about 9 meters). This means XLR8 was generating wind speeds of at least 120kmph and that's just lifting the guy off the ground (NOTE: This calculation may or may not be correct as the author used a calculation which calculated a 50kg man and just doubled the result).
He was then able to use his tail to slam the guy into the wall.
Using F=ma:
F = 100 x 9.8
XLR8 was able to exert 9800 Newtons of Force.
XLR8 was then able to remove the other 2 gangsters using the same treatment (minus throwing them up into the air) before scaring the last one off.
In The Alliance XLR8 was used to briefly engage Rojo in combat. He showed that he was easily able to 'disappear' in the blink of an eye and was able to put this speed to good use when throwing punches and kicks. Rojo however was able to catch him off guard (or perhaps it was just Ben being overconfident) with one of her lasers. She proceeded to beat down on XLR8 but when XLR8 noticed Gwen was at the scene he quickly grabbed her and fled. He went down one block (which is about 16 miles) in the span of less than a second before putting her down and timing out.
In Lucky Girl XLR8 was used to save people from falling to their deaths by having them fall into a giant tapestry instead. He then went to engage Hex in combat but had to run away from the giant flames Hex had set to the tapestry. In doing so he was able to run up a wall with ease. In doing so XLR8 has essentially bypassed gravity just by running. Now people can run up walls but only for a brief period of time (seconds). Assuming XLR8 weighs 100kg (He probably weighs less than that) XLR8 would have had to exert 9800 Newtons of Force at a minimum and maintain that force for as long as he ran up the wall. XLR8 also was dodging Hex's attacks and was seen on the opposite side of the room which meant that he ran on the ceiling as well.
XLR8 was doing pretty well until Hex blinded him by releasing a burst of light. Hex was then distracted by Max and Gwenn and proceeded to telekinetically throw them aside giving XLR8 enough time to rush him and create a temporary containment area where he was constantly attacking Hex.
XLR8 then manipulated the vortex so that it looked like a slinky and encased Hex in a crater defeating him.
In Secrets after being changed from Ripjaws to XLR8, XLR8 was used to fight Vilgax. At first it seemed he tried to escape but in reality, XLR8 just ran around and up Mount Rushmore to attack Vilgax from the other side.
He was running pretty fast but it still wasn't fast enough to leave a dent in Vilgax and he simply ended up hurting himself. Vilgax then hit him with enough force to blow up at least part of mount rushmore but surprisingly XLR8 remained unscathed and was able to dodge the rest of Vilgax's attacks. XLR8 tried to retaliate but Vilgax caught him and threw him into a wall. The Omnitrix then turned Ben into Diamondhead.
In Truth XLR8 was used to find Max and save him fromone of the aliens Phil released from the Null Void. XLR8 engaged the alien in combat and although he was able to dodge its attacks he himself couldn't deal any substantial damage. While he was trying to get Max to 'pick up the pace', XLR8 got hit by one of the floor boards before timing out.
In The Galactic Enforcers XLR8 was used to assist the Galactic Enforcers in the arrest of Sixsix and Vulkanus. XLR8 was able to create a vortex which threw Sixsix around.
Of course Ben's carelessness got him to run into some construction equipment. After most of the Galactic Enforcers were down, XLR8 dodged Sixsix's laser blasts while running around the mine. He then ran up the wall of rock and pushed himself off from it to take Sixsix down while he was in the air.
XLR8 went after Vulkanus but had to go back to save Gwen and Max from being crushed by one of the containers but timed out soon after.
In Camp Fear XLR8 was used to scout out an entire cave of living mushrooms to find Max. When he was attacked by some sentient vines, he quickly hacked them to pieces in seconds.
XLR8 was even able to hack an entire wall of vines to pieces before timing out.
In Back with a Vengeance XLR8 showed that he had more control over his speed and was actually able to run on water with no problem at all before turning into Stinkfly to save Max and Gwen.
Later XLR8 was used to escape the Vilgax and Kevin. He did this by running across an entire platform in seconds. Unfortunately I have no idea of knowing how much distance he covered.
In Ben 10,000 XLR8 was used to chase after Gwen's future self so as to not let Gwen's present self get kidnapped (Seriously what the **** were they smoking when they wrote this episode?). Don't ask me how but XLR8 actually managed to beat Gwen's future self to the future despite the fact that she created the portal. We see her open the portal as well so XLR8 (streak included) would've had to be moving faster than the eye could process at that moment.
Though we don't see the portal close we do see Gwen (FS) checking behind her to see if she was followed and next thing she knows, XLR8 attacks her in the opposite direction and we never see or hear his streak pass her. Ben then takes Gwen back but is shocked when people start calling him "Ben 10k" and even more shocked when he finds out he has a giant statue in his honor. Unfortunately the statue is blown up by Exo Skull who starts firing at Ben. XLR8 easily dodges Exo Skull's laser blasts but times out before he can do anything to Exo Skull.
In Merry Christmas XLR8 was used to escape from Mr. Jingles' guards. He was easily able to grab a candy cane out of the air (and said candy cane had just been shot out of a shotgun). However he had trouble running on ice. XLR8 got stuck in the snow and was then hit by several candy canes (that were also shot out of a shotgun). Gwen was able to fend some of the guards off before XLR8 was finally able to grab her and run while also melting some of the snow. XLR8 then quickly made dozens of snowballs in the span of seconds (which is weird considering the speed he was going at was enough to melt snow) and spun himself around to throw them out of the vortex he was creating. This vortex also generated more snowballs by lifting snow out of the ground into the air.
In Under Wraps XLR8 was used against Corrodium-mutated cows. At first he was just messing around but eventually decided to end it by tying them up inside a giant dust vortex.
XLR8 was then used to fight the Mummy but his attacks had little to no effect. Eventually XLR8 timed out.
In The Unaturals XLR8 proved he had a slower perception of time due to how fast he moves. He was easily able to grab a baseball and move it to another place so that the opposing baseball team would lose.
He even does this to move the ball just enough that it hit Cash in the ass (which allowed Cash to move to first base). Of course eventually XLR8 starts getting reckless and starts making less subtle changes that the ball appears to be moving on its own. Only Gwen catches own but that's because Max is in his old age and the rest of the world are morons. Oh and he did this for the entire baseball game (allowing his team to win) but also proving that the Omnitrix can be active for as long as 2 hours ( or a minimum of 90 minutes). Gwen eventually caught XLR8 on camera on "super super super slow motion" and even then she was only able to catch him by pausing it at the exact moment of his actions.
Alright so because these players were literally designed with the data of the world's best baseball players, I think it would be fair to scale to them. The fastest ever pitch at the time was done in 1974 by Nolan Ryan at 173.97 kmph (108.1 mph/48.325 ms). Now to XLR8, the ball has stopped completely in motion but because that isn't exactly easy to calc let's say the ball moved 1 cm. The time it would take for the ball to move one centimeter is 0.0002 seconds. In that time XLR8 was able to run across the baseball field, see that the ball was stopped and move it so that it missed its target. A standard Little League field will have a 18.288 meter (60 feet) difference between bases. For XLR8 to simply move this speed in the already lowballed time, he would have to be moving at 914,400 meters per second or 51,840 kmph. This is approximately 2665 times faster than sound.
At the end of the episode XLR8 decided to get revenge on Cash and J.T and was able to wedgie them several meters up a building in less than a second (OK we saw the streak take them but we didn't see the streak go up the building.
In Monster Weather XLR8 was used to save Gwen from being hit by a lightning bolt. Lightning bolts travel at 220,000 miles per hour (353,055.68kmph) meaning XLR8 would have been travelling at at least that speed to save Gwen. I guess the CN statement "XLR8 can move at 500mph" not only holds water but is an extreme understatement to how fast he can really go.
He was also able to save several other people from being struck by lightning. Oh he was also able to move much faster than a fire truck which can reach speeds of 120 kmph but when you've just dodged lightning several times, that feat doesn't seem so impressive. Now while XLR8 was able to keep up with S.A.M while running up buildings, he made the mistake of jumping off those buildings to take out S.A.M. XLR8 may be one of Ben's fastest aliens but his mobility is significantly decreased while he is in the air which allowed S.A.M to strike him with lightning bolts.
Still XLR8 was still able to tank the lightning bolts and the fall back to the ground. XLR8 then caught back up with S.A.M and was able to scale a skyscrape in seconds. He used this height to get inside S.A.M's cumulus clouds and XLR8 was actually able to dodge the lightning thrown at him.
While inside the cloud XLR8 was able to create a funnel by spinning to throw S.A.M out of the cumulus clouds.That's not even the impressive part. The impressive part is that he was able to calculate the direction and angle he needed the funnel to go to send S.A.M into a couple of salt trucks to short him out.
In The Return XLR8 was used against DR. Victor but it turns out Victor has excellent reflexes as XLR8 was quckly punched away. However, even in close quarters XLR8 was still much faster than the lightning Victor could produce.
Victor grabbed onto XLR8's tail but XLR8 just rapidly kicked him in the face until he let go. Victor then opened a portal using his electricity and XLR8 had to try and not get sucked in.
XLR8 was doing pretty well until the portal started sucking in debris as well and because XLR8 was focusing on not getting sucked in, he got hit by the debris and got sucked in. Well actually he didn't XLR8 grabbed onto the debris and threw it into the portal hoping that the portal would disappear as soon as something had entered it. It was a gamble but it payed off.
In Perfect Day XLR8 was able to defeat several Forever Knights while dodging laser fire before defeating Enoch and putting him into the dream machine.
In Ben 4 Good Buddy XLR8 was used to fix up the Rust Bucket in a manner of minutes.
In Ready to Rumble XLR8 was used to grab a block of ice and scale a gigantic hill. He then went down on the ice but was going so fast that the ice melted giving the illusion that XLR8 had wet himself.
In Ben 10 vs the Negative 10: Part 1 XLR8 was used to protect a couple of guards from being killed by laser fire.
He then had to dodge point-blank laser fire on a narrow walkway.
Unfortunately his cockiness caused him to get hit by an explosion.
After 111 episodes XLR8 finally makes a reappearance where he is used to play a game of street hockey among other kinecelerans. He moves so fast that he creates a vacuum of dirt behind him and hits the puck past Ester into the goal. This is notable because the other Kinecelerans were unable to get it past Ester.
In Ben Again XLR8 was used to fight Eon where he was easily able to dodge Eon's time blasts.
In Store 23 XLR8 was used to fight Dimension 23's version of SevenSeven and was able to go fast enough to land several hits on SevenSeven without being hit once. He let Ben 23 take all the glory but in doing so Ben 23 got a bomb stuck to his arm. To prevent Ben 23 from being blown up XLR8 raced to Ben 23 and ran through all the possible codes (I could be wrong but using the internet I found that the total number of combinations would be 49) so that the bomb would detach from Ben 23's arm and this was when he only had 13 seconds to do so. With one second left XLR8 then raced with enough velocity to indirectly crack a window and put the bomb on SevenSeven before racing back to safety.
In The Ballad of Mr. Baumann XLR8 carried Mr. Baumann from Undertown to his store in Bellwood while Mr Baumann also had two handfuls of rocks in his pocket.
In Secret of Dos Santos XLR8 was able to find the temple of the sky with Skurd's help. Upon doing so he quickly ran back to Kai and brought her to the exact same spot above the village in a matter of seconds.
Weaknesses
Though not really a weakness, XLR8 does need time to adjust to friction-less surfaces such as water (though is able to in the matter of a few seconds). However as shown in Merry Christmas XLR8 does actually have trouble running on ice and although he can still skate on it, he will eventually lose control.
XLR8's mobility is significantly decreased when he is in the air.
Grey Matter
Grey Matter is a Galvan from the planet Galvan Prime and his species is are smart. Really smart. The guy who invented the Omnitrix was a Galvan named Azmuth but this page is about Grey Matter so lets get to it. Now you would think with Grey Matter's intelligence that Ben would have used him to defuse bombs but no (although he does that later on) Ben just decided to take advantage of Grey Matter's small size to find a prize inside a cereal box. COME ON! I mean the freaking intangible ghost is just one episode later and you decide to waste the genius of your crew into finding a dumb card.
After being reminded that brute force isn't always the way to go, Ben decided to finally use Grey Matter for a real purpose in Hunted. Grey Matter was used to hide from Kraab and then jump onto him to mess with his suit's wiring. Once he found and removed a "nerve cluster", Kraab's metal suit went haywire, forcing him to go out of control and eventually defeated.
Now due to Plot Induced Stupidity Tetrax, who was previously seen beating both bounty hunters multiple times isn't doing so hot so Grey Matter had to save the day by also taking care of SixSix's "nerve cluster" which caused SixSix to fly out of control, crash into a water tower and ended up on the ground with Grey Matter triumphant.
In A Small Problem Grey Matter can jump surprisingly high considering he's only six inches tall. This episode also showed just how smart Grey Matter really is as he was able to calculate the exact location of where he was. He calculated that there was "a mountain peak 13.2 miles west at a vertical angle of 45 degrees". Though his overwhelming intelligence can cause him to overlook the simpler details such as the name of the street he was on. Grey Matter was also able to use his small size to his advantage to temporarily confuse the alien enthusiast and escape into a vent. When he was caught he was able to bite down hard enough to cause pain to the enthusiast. Grey Matter is also quite agile as he was able to avoid the enthusiast's broom swinging.
Grey Matter has shown to be able to climb near vertical slopes with ease.
Using the supplies on hand Grey Matter was able to create a bomb that completely destroyed the Organisation's mansion.
In Secrets while the power surge was still affecting him Ghostfreak quick changed into Grey Matter where he was able to destroy one of Vilgax's droids. The Omnitrix then turned him into Upgrade.
In Truth Grey Matter was used to combat one of the aliens that escaped from the Null Void (intended alien was Four Arms). To do this he pulled a ratatouille and took control of the alien by using the tentacles on its head. This allowed him to gain control of the alien's motor skills.
On a side note isn't it nice to know that Ben 10 used essentially the whole premise of a Disney movie an entire year before said movie was released?
In Grudge Match Grey Matter was used to free all the gladiators/prisoners by disabling all the shock collars.
In Ultimate Weapon Grey Matter was used to break into(oh I'm sorry, 'sneak into' as Max puts it) some facility holding the mask of Au Puch. He did this by climbing into a drain pipe which lead to the bathroom.
As soon as he climbed out, he found himself cornered by a couple of dogs but Grey Matter jumped up to get them to run into each other.
He was then able to open the side door for Max and Gwen. Later Grey Matter was able to break into a safe with relative ease by predicting the combination. The Forever Knights turned up and Grey Matter used himself as a distraction to allow Max and Gwen to escape. He displayed surprising strength as the leader had to use significant effort to get Grey Matter off his face. Grey Matter then escaped through the pipes again and fell down three meters into a dumpster before timing out.
In They Lurk Below Grey Matter was used to save a diver from being eaten by the sharks (the selected alien was Ripjaws). Grey Matter showed that he was a surprisingly good swimmer (which is weird because he got swept away by the water currents from a tap. Maybe he's been practicing).
He was able to manipulate one shark into eating the other one saving the diver.
In Ghostfreaked Out Grey Matter was used to completely out-smart and out-manuever the Circus Freak Trio. Though the main reason was just so Ghostfreak couldn't possess him. Grey Matter then hid from Ghostfreak but timed out. Ghostfreak was about to possess Ben but Ben was able to open the curtains and defeat him using light.
As seen in Back with a Vengeance Grey Matter's small size can actually be an advantage when he is in gigantic hands as it can give the allusion that he has disappeared in thin air. Of course Vilgax quickly found out where he was and grabbed him with both hands but Ben just turned into Diamondhead.
In Merry Christmas Grey Matter was able to infiltrate and shut down the Jinglelator. This machine was so advanced that it was able to turn an entire town's climate into Christmas season all year, every year and this is especially impressive considering that it was able to snow in the town in the middle of the f***ing desert. Not only that but it was able to affect people's nervous systems giving Mr Jingles full control over a person's actions and it was able to mutate children into elf-like creatures. Mr Jingles also stated that the Jinglelator could make his reindeer fly (however the **** that's supposed to work). This machine controlled dozens of guards at the same time and most impressively it was able to manipulate time itself! Elsgood was a child from the year 1932 yet in 2006 he thought that time had only passed "a few days". The fact that Grey Matter was able to shut it down with relative ease speaks volumes about his intelligence. By the way the destruction of this machine created a rift in time where Elsgood has grandchildren and has been coming to Holiday Village every year since he left. This is where I call bull****. The elf Elsgood was barely old enough to have the sex talk much less reproduce and now this show is trying to tell me that he HAD CHILDREN THIS ENTIRE TIME!!! I don't even think in Omniverse we see technology so advanced that it can break the laws of space-time.
In The Unaturals Grey Matter was used to stop a couple of crooks trying to steal the liberty bell (intended alien was XLR8). He displayed impressive reaction time as he was able to leap off the 'Test your Strength' carnival games highest point before he could get smashed into the top of it.
He then got inside the car they were using to steal the bell and decided to break the car's steering allowing the authorities to arrest the crooks. Grey Matter was then able to calculate (not guess) the correct amount of jellybeans in a container (6,532 before he ate one) to win a 'music pocket'.
In Afraid of the Dark Grey Matter was used to escape from Zs'skayr and Victor.His small size was to his advantage as he was able t easily slip through small gaps. Grey Matter was then able to use communication systems he'd never used before to contact Max and Gwen on a rocket ship and was even able to figure out Zs'skayr's plan after only hearing the words "master plan". Before he timed out Grey Matter was able to quickly assemble a Sun Gun to fight off Zs'skayr.
In Secret of the Omnitrix Grey Matter was able to use his hovorboard to catch up to Animo and attack him.
Grey Matter was then able to make Animo lose control of his pet and fly straight into a steam pipe.
After 117 episodes Grey Matter finally makes a reappearance in the episode So Long and Thanks for All the Smoothies where he was used to fight the Vreedle Brothers (intended alien was Rath). Well he was able to defeat the Vreedle Brothers by climbing on the ceiling and opening a pipe that apparently had liquid nitrogen inside it, freezing the Vreedles. Later he was easily able to identify a spaceship's control systems and find the tractor beam needed to reel Rook's ship back. Also this particular ship was one of the Contemelia's, a race of five dimensional beings. This ship was also holding the Anihilaarg a device so advanced that it could destroy an entire universe and it was made by the same people who made this ship (NOTE: I am not in anyway trying to say this ship could destroy a universe. I am merely trying to say that because it was made by the creators of the Anihilaarg, it must be pretty freaking advanced).
In Of Predators and Prey: Part 2 Grey Matter was able to use his small size to reach Tyrannopede's nerves and execute the Hephaestan neuro grip, a technique that Ben had only seen once, to successfully subdue Tyrannopede.
In And Then There Were Ben No Watch Be used Grey Matter to disable the Chimerian Hammer's shields which allowed Xylene to early blow it up.
Weaknesses
A pretty obvious one is that Grey Matter's small size renders him almost completely useless against anyone human-sized as shown in A Small Problem when he gets kidnapped by an alien enthusiast. This also leaves him vulnerable to minor air currents such as that of an air conditioner as well as water currents from a tap. This also makes him extremely vulnerable to smoke.
Four Arms
Four Arms is a tetramand from the planet Khoros. Four Arm's debut involved flipping a mammoth.
If you think that's impressive he also grabbed the trunk of the mammoth, spun it around and easily threw it into a wall, knocking it out cold.
Although we don't know the kind or gender of the mammoth, the average weight for one is 4-6 tonnes. This means that Four Arms, in his debut episode was able to exert about 49000N of force from lifting the mammoth. The only negative effects was that he felt a bit nauseous from spinning so much. Four Arms is also pretty durable as he shook off being smashed into a wall by said mammoth pretty easily.
Four Arms also jumped several meters into the air catching up to Animo's parrot before being slammed into the ground creating a massive crater. Convienient that the Omnitrix timed out seconds after Four Arms had crashed into ground, isn't it?
In The Krakken Four Arms was thrown across the lake (about 15 metres) and managed to escape the so called Krakken's grasp.
In Tourist Trap Four Arms was used to casually juggle a gigantic ball of rubber bands. Judging by the size of the rubber band ball and how it is slightly taller than Four Arms (who is 10 to 12 feet tall), it is safe to say that this ball is larger than the world's largest ball of rubber bands (or at least similar to it) as the ball Four Arms lifts has a larger height and a similar width it would weigh more than the world's largest ball of rubber bands which weighs 4,097kg. This would require Four Arms to exert at least 40,150N of force per arm.
Or course Ben's natural arrogance and cockiness causes him to drop it but considering he was able to hold the ball and then throw it up into the air to catch with his over arm should show that it wasn't the limit of Four Arms' strength. Naturally this causes the ball to bounce out of the warehouse and 30 meters into the air and bounce straight back into Four Arms (destroying various parts of the city) before stopping. Ben thinks he can put everything back but before he gets the chance he times out.
In Kevin 11 Four Arms was used to combat Kevin but Kevin just absorbed Four Arms' DNA and mutated again.
Yet despite this Four Arms was still able to gain the upper hand though this could be partly attributed to Kevin only being half Tetramand instead of a full tetramand. Kevin did gain the upper hand but when Ben heard the sound of the Omnitrix timing out, he got desperate and used faster and more powerful strikes before throwing Kevin through two bridge supports before timing out.
In The Alliance Four Arms was used to combat a group of thieves. During the start f the fight Four Arms was able to punch the ground so hard that it generated a shockwave that moved in a straight line towards the thieves and threw them up into the air. The tensile strength of concrete is 300-700psi so because Four Arms created at least a five meter hole (which is 196.85 inches) in the ground he would have had to have exerted 267,868 Newtons of force at a minimum.
Four Arms then took a laser blast and was slammed into a pillar of concrete.
Then the leader shot another laser blast into the fuel tank right next to him which caused it to explode. This didn't affect Four Arms though and he immediately jumped out of the explosion like a bad ass. Four Arms was about to beat them but upon realizing that they were female Ben's 'heroic' nature kicked in and he had to take another laser blast. That was when Vilgax's droids arrived and he had to dodge more laser blasts but when Max got hurt he promptly grabbed the droids and threw them into the last thief.
In Lucky Girl Four Arms was used to save innocents from Hex. He showed that he was able to hold up one of the supports which had three people (average weight would be at least 200kg) on it (though its not surprising considering his past feats. When Four Arms eventually caught up to Gwen and Hex, Hex had already obtained the fifth charm claiming that it was "time to turn this city into an old memory" implying that he was at least city level in terms of D.C (though I'm not saying Four Arms is city level because that kind of powerscaling is bullshit). Four Arms was able to interrupt him by tackling him. Hex then created stone creatures for Four Arms to face and the stone creature quickly gained the upper hand with its surprising speed and agility. It was able to push Four Arms through several stone pillars.
Four Arms was eventually able to slice through oe of the stone creatures with a sword he found (though the sword broke) and was able to disintegrate the other ones head by putting it into a headlock. Four Arms then sealed Hex into one of the coffins.
In Side Effects despite being sick Four Arms was still able to tear down a wall. Four Arms was then able to jump through several floors while carrying Max and Gwen. When armies of ants were attacking him Four Arms was itching so hard that he was inadvertently destroying the building.
In Secrets Four Arms was able to easily break out of the machine which was holding the Omnitrix captive. He was going to confront the droids but the power surge was still affecting him and the Omnitrix changed him into Ghostfreak.
In The Big Tick Four Arms was used against the big tick but was easily defeated.
In Framed Kevin transformed into Four Arms and was able to pick up a police car. Because Osmosians are only able to use 10% of the energy they absorb Kevin's Four Arms would have been only a tenth as strong as Ben's Four Arms. The police car that he picked up would have probably been the Ford Crown Victoria cruiser which weighs at least 4000 pounds (1814.369 kg) and because Ben's Four Arms is ten times stronger than Kevin's, that means he must be able to exert 177,808 Newtons of Force.
Four Arms was later used to combat Kevin while he was using Diamondhead. With a single punch Four Arms was able to send Diamondhead to the other side of the support tower.
Four Arms quickly overwhelmed Kevin as it seems hand-to-hand combat goes hand in hand with Tetramands (get it? because they have four hands. Shut up). He was able to lift Diamondhead and throw him back down. You could hear Diamondhead's spine cracking as he did it.
Kevin then transformed into Heatblast and got in a couple of surprise flame attacks though they didn't really do anything to Four Arms. Four Arms then punched the Golden Gate Bridge so hard that sheets of steel actually went up in a shockwave and sent Kevin flying through the air. Kevin then transformed into Stinkfly but 'timed out' and was at 'Four Arms' mercy. Four Arms decided it wasn't worth finishing Kevin off and this pisses Kevin off so much that he turns into Kevin 11 and quickly overwhelms Four Arms. Just as Kevin's about to finish Ben off the military fires at him saving Four Arms. Four Arms then saves Steel from falling to his death.
In The Galactic Enforcers Four Arms was used to engage Vulkanus in combat. He got thrown off but was able to punch him into the air. This was the moment Sixsix decided to show up and fire at Four Arms. Four Arms was agile enough to dodge the missiles being fired at him. While cruise missiles typically fly at speeds of 100-500km/h, the missiles Sixsix fires at Four Arms are more akin to RPGs (Rocket Propelled Grenades) which fly at speeds of 294m/s. Although RPGs are less likely to hit their target from distances over 300m, Sixsix appears to be controlling them himself and these are likely more advanced missiles/grenades, which have alien technology implemented in them, anyway.
Four Arms was then able to catch a couple of the missiles and through them back at Sixsix.
Just as Four Arms was about to deal the final blow Sixsix threw a surprise EMP which affected Four Arms greatly.
Sixsix was going to deal the final blow but was interrupted by The Galactic Enforcers. Four Arms was then used to hold up a concrete pillar though Sixsix and Vulkanus got away.
In Tough Luck Four Arms was used to stop a bus full of elderly people from driving off a cliff.
This is a Type D bus which can weigh more than 33,000 pounds (14968.548kg). This means lifting the bus alone would require 146,691 Newtons of Force and that's not even taking into account the elderly passengers on board the bus. Four Arms then carried each and everyone of the elderly passengers off the bus.
In Side Effects while sick Four Arms accumulated pockets of hives and shot out streams of snot though this didn't really impair his fighting.His strength was significantly decreased though as he struggled to lift a cement block.
In The Galactic Enforcers Four Arms was greatly affected by some kind of alien EMP, though regular EMPs likely wouldn't deal as much damage.
In Ultimate Weapon Four Arms was used to slow Ben's descent into the supposedly bottomless pit.
In Game Over Four Arms was able to generate a shockwave by clapping all four hands together. While he was inside a video game, Four Arms has performed similar feats in the past so its not too far a stretch to say he could do so in real life. Shockwaves are formed when an object moves faster than sound but because Four Arms only clapped to create a sonic boom its a bit more complex.
In Under Wraps Four Arms was able to lift a cow and the typical weight for a female cow is about 720 kg.
In The Unaturals Four Arms showed that he was capable of crushing metal with his jaws.
In The Visitor Four Arms was able to tank three missiles fired from a droid simultaneously.
In Ben 10 vs the Negative 10: Part 2 Four Arms was able to sneak up on the Forever Ninja and throw him into the Rust Bucket.
In Destroy All Aliens Four Arms was used against Retaliator. Four Arms was able to catch four missiles and use them to fly.
In Hero Time Four Arms effortlessly defeated Captain Nemesis in Tug of War. Bear in mind that Captain Nemesis had previously had enough strength to lift and throw a train.
In Map of Infinity Four Arms held up a giant stone ceiling so that Kevin could grab Gwen and prevent them all from being crushed under it.
In Girl Trouble Four Arms fought Computron's minions and easily defeated them. He punched through one and used it as a weapon to destroy another one. There was a calc here stating how much force he would've needed to do so but it got deleted by blogger. **** you Blogger.
In Basic Training Four Arms lifted a cabinet for Tack. later in the episode he fought a Tetramand named Kolar and well he nearly got his arse kicked.
In Inspector 13 Four Arms defeated Inspector 13 with a single punch which is impressive considering earlier in the episode Inspector 13 was able to move faster than the eye could track.
In The Beginning of the End Four Arms was used to fight some of the Esoterica. He was able to keep up with their agility and ****ing cheap dimensional warping abilities. He also tanked some of their energy blasts and even punched a few of them.
In Trouble Helix Four Arms was used to fight Malware. He proved strong enough to ram Malware into several buildings before throwing him into a skyscraper. He then tanked a laser blast that sent him flying through several stories of the same skyscraper.
In The Frogs of War: Part 1 Four Arms was able to effortlessly take out four Incursean soldiers.
In The Ultimate Heist Four Arms was able to send Negative Ultimate Spidermonkey flying with a single punch.
In Catfight Four Arms fought Looma to a standstill before being changed into Bullfrag.
In Blukic and Driba Go to Area 51 Four Arms fought Benevelon and was able to tank one of Benevelon's laser blasts which were capable of destroying buildings. He was then able to throw a milatary vehicle into Benevelon's force field with enough force to shatter it which is notable due to the fact that the same force field was easily able to tank bullets and point-blank explosions. Four Arms then backhanded the Galvanian Skeuomorph into B.L.R.R.T.
Stinkfly
Stinkfly is a lepidopterran from the planet Lepidopterra. Stinkfly was first used to save Gwen from falling to her death on top of the Washington Monument. He then engaged in an aerial battle against Animo's giant parrot and was easily able to dodge all of its attacks. He eventually was able to grab onto the parrot and smash it into the monument itself before throwing it into the ground. Stinkfly then went after Animo and was able to get a hit in on the T-Rex before being slammed into the ground by said T-Rex. After a brief internal struggle (between saving a life or a sumo slammer card), Stinkfly easily saved a guy from being eaten by a T-Rex and was easily able to dodge Animo's mutation rays before sliming the T-Rex and destroying Animo's transmodulator; saving the day in the end.
In The Krakken Stinkfly was easily able to keep up with a whaling boat. The fastest boat at the time was the Earthrace which had a supposed top speed of 59.3km/h. He was also able to easily dodge machine gun fire which can typically fire 300 to 1800 rounds per minute.
In The Krakken Stinkfly was easily able to keep up with a whaling boat. The fastest boat at the time was the Earthrace which had a supposed top speed of 59.3km/h. He was also able to easily dodge machine gun fire which can typically fire 300 to 1800 rounds per minute.
In the same fight he was also able to dodge barrels which exploded right in front of him.
Even when he was completely helpless when his wings got water-logged, Stinkfly was still able to slime a tree branch and pull himself up, effectively dodging both machine gun fire and the boat that was trying to run him over.
Mere seconds after this Stinkfly was able to dry his wings off by flapping them to save a guy from drowning.
In Tourist Trap Stinkfly was used to put out a fire and stop a propene tank from exploding. He used his slime to accomplish said feat.
Stinkfly was also able to utilize his tail in such a way as to carve through metal so that he had an opening to save the truck driver. Tanker trucks are made out of various metals such as aluminium, carbon steel, stainless steel and sometimes even fiberglass reinforced plastic. Though the frame is generally made out of sheets of steel, followed by fiberglass insulation (to regulate the temperature of the liquid inside), which is then followed by a thin sheet of stainless steel which is finally finished with aluminum fenders for the tyres. The roof will probably only be composed of carbon steel. Though according to the internet (because that's a trustworthy source right?), the ultimate tensile strength (the amount of pressure per square inch it takes to reach breaking point) of steel is 40,000 pounds per square inch!
Stinkfly was then able to bend steel to allow for a larger gap to save the truck driver though its not as impressive as straight up breaking through it.
In Kevin 11 Stinkfly was used to carry Kevin and escape from the local police force. Kevin weighed 80kg which means that using F = ma
F = 80 x 9.8
Stinkfly was able to exert 784 Newtons of force and this was while he was escaping from the police force. He was also able to charge through several officers cloaked in body armor.
Stinkfly was then pursued by helicopters and was fired upon by several snipers. Helicopters generally fly at 130 - 145 miles per hour (or 209 to 233 km per hour) and Stinkfly was able to go faster than that while being fired at and carrying Kevin. To top it all off he was able to manauver through the Statue of Liberty's crown while doing all this.
Stinkfly was eventually able to lose the SWAT team by flying into a tunnel and changing back into Ben before leaving the tunnel.
In Secrets Stinkfly fought a couple of Vilgax's droids and was easily able to dodge their lasers. Stinkfly then used his slime to make one of the droid's lasers backfire and kill itself.
Stinkfly then pierced the armor of the other droid which made it explode as well (somehow).
Stinkfly then congratulated himself but Vilgax then attacked him and grabbed onto Stinkfly before he could get away. I would calculate Vilgax's mass but I have no idea what physiology he has. He could have different organs which have a different mass so just look at the picture and see that Stinkfly was able to carry someone twice his size with only his tail.
Fortunately Stinkfly was then able to use his slime to propel Vilgax off him.
When Vilgax caught Stinkfly, they crashed into a building which then exploded.
Vilgax was then able to manually time Stinkfly out.
In The Big Tick Stinkfly was used to break out of some sort of alien quicksand.
Stinkfly was then able to rescue both Gwen and Max before heading back to the tick.
On his way to 'The Great One' Stinkfly was intercepted by several vines and was forced to dodge them while holding Max and Gwen as well as moving toward 'The Great One'.
Stinkfly was then able to use his slime to block an eruption which would poison Yellowstone more than it already was and extend beyond Yellowstone.
Stinkfly dropped Max and Gwen off and engaged the three cultists in combat alone. He was able to use his saliva to catch one of them off guard.
He was able to lose them in the clouds and was about to sneak attack them when the Omnitrix timed out.
In Ultimate Weapon Stinkfly was used to carry Max and Gwen to a Mayan Temple somewhere in Mexico. The RV broke about 20-30 km away from Mexico so already this is an impressive feat that counts for Stinkfly's stamina.
Though its difficult to pinpoint exactly where they are, similar ruins and geographical features are around South Mexico. One site is the Calakmul Ruins which are just 22 miles from the Guatemala border. Another site which also has similar geographical features is the Chacchoben Ruins in Costa Maya which is 110 miles south of Tulem. This one is the more likely of the two as it is located further north in Mexico. Still if this is true and the temple is the Chacchoben Ruins, Stinkfly would've had to have travelled at least 2000 kilometers while carrying Max and Gwen and before the Omnitrix times out (it times out about 15-30 kilometers away from the temple). Of course if I was just being a dumbass and they were actually 30 kilometers from Mexico City, the distance is still 1376.3 km.
In Tough Luck Stinkfly was used to stop a rogue helicopter. He did this by sliming the nearby buildings to create a slime web which was able to suspend a helicopter in the air.
Helicopters can weigh as little as 1000 pounds or as much as 10,000 pounds though the helicopter shown here is similar to the Bell 206 Long Ranger which weighs 3,000 pounds (1360.777). This means the slime would have had to be able to hold 13,335 Newtons of force.
In They Lurk Below Stinkfly was used to carry Eddie and Gwen and escape from the gigantic horde of cyber squids. He was doing pretty well evading their attacks before he turned back to look and ended up underwater.
In Back with a Vengeance Stinkfly was used to escape Kevin's grasp. Later when Ben saw that the gondola was about to fall and Max and Gwen were in peril, Ben turned into XLR8 and then Stinkfly to save Max and Gwen.
In A Change of Face Stinkfly was used to stop a building fire. His slime was easily able to put fire out as he went.
Unfortunately he was easily stopped by Charmcaster.
In Merry Christmas Stinkfly was able to fly all across the world to deliver presents to children (with the help of a teleporter (though we never actually see it in action)).
He did this while carrying a small plane full of presents as well as Gwen and Max.
In The Return Stinkfly was used to stop a bus taken over by escaped convicts. He used his slime to essentially blind them.
His tail then got caught in a chain so that he was anchored to the prison bus but Stinkfly used this opportunity to catch three priosoners in the chain.
In Ben 10 VS the Negative 10: Part 1 Stinkfly was used to stop a couple of crooks from escaping in a helicopter while dodging laser fire.
Stinkfly was able to easily dodge the laser fire while keeping up with the helicopter before he retalated with his slime. Stinkfly's slime was able to stop a helicopter's propeller instantaneously.
When the crooks tried to escape using parachutes, Stinkfly merely grabbed them and left them for the authorities to deal with.
After a long absence due to Ben getting more flying based aliens who could do the job better Stinkfly finally makes a re-appearance in the Omniverse episode A Jolt from the Past where he was able to fire his slime at rapid-fire speeds to slime the Megawhatt into the wall. Unfortunately the Megawhatt easily got out of it by generating an electrical pulse.
In Of Predators and Prey: Part 1 Stinkfly was used to fight Crabdozer. His goo proved strong enough to hold each of Crabdozer's legs down and forced Crabdozer to change into Buglizard, Stinkfly's natural predator. As you can guess that encounter didn't go so well and Rook had to save him because this episode was focusing on the fallacy that Ben needs help to save the day.
In Of Predators and Prey: Part 2 Stinkfly was used to fight Terroranchula and was able to slime him to the ground. Unfortunately as Stinkfly tried to execute a physical attack, he got electrocuted and defeated. Later in the episode, 16 year old Ben used Stinkfly to fight Slamworm and was able to dodge Slamworm's attacks but Slamworm turned into Buglizard so that didn't go well.
Weaknesses
As shown in The Krakken, Stinkfly's wings can get water logged preventing him from flying. While its true it only took about a minute to get them dry again, it severely limits Stinkfly's usefulness and one minute can be the difference between life and death. On top of that Stinkfly can't swim as shown in They Lurk Below though he was able to paddle his way to a log in The Krakken so I don't see why he couldn't do that.
Not really a surprise here but as shown in Tourist Trap Stinkfly is vulnerable to fire, heat, flames etc.

Ripjaws
Ripsjaws is a Piscuss Volan who comes from the planet Piscuss. Ripjaws made his official debut in The Krakken and was used to help stop poachers from stealing The Krakken's eggs. Now I'm sure you can tell that this is one of Ben's aquatic aliens just by looking at him but he is also useful on land. Like when he jumped out of the water to take on a mech and straight up chomped on the gun about to be fired at him point-blank.
Though a better feat was when Ripjaws chomped the mech's arm off.
In Last Laugh Ripjaws was used to apprehend a couple of thieves. He took out one with ease and pursued the other by jumping from the ocean to the top of the pier (distance was at least four meters). Ripjaws did get trapped by a conveniently placed ring of fire but he was able to punch through the wooden floor to get back into the water.
In Secrets after being changed from Upgrade to Ripjaws, Ripjaws was forced to try and climb his way up and it was shown that his claws were sharp enough to leave traces in stone. Ripjaws was then able to use this to climb up Mount Rushmore with relative ease though he soon needed water and Vilgax decided to attack him. It was at this moment he turned into XLR8.
In Ben 4 Good Buddy Ripjaws was used to rip metal out of a car in the middle of the desert where no water was in sight (Intended alien was XLR8). Ripjaws quickly had to find water after this.
After 69 episodes Ripjaws finally makes a re-appearance in Perplexahedron where he was used to break a couple of walls so that Kevin wouldn't drown.
Weaknesses
Obviously Ripjaws, being a fish, is more suited for aquatic battle as he will eventually run out of air during land combat. As shown in Last Laugh it is even worse if he's surrounded by fire.
Upgrade
Upgrade's species is that of a Galvanic Mechamorph from not Galvin Prime but its moon Galvan B. Upgrade was first used to stop some criminals from robbing an ATM and he did this by completely morphing into the truck and taking it over throwing the driver out (somehow).
As anyone can tell Upgrade's powers specialize in morphing technology and 'upgrading' it past its limits. Upgrade also has enhanced strength to a degree as he was easily able to catch a chain thrown at him and throw the other criminal (who must weigh at least 75-95kg) into the air into a power-pole, knocking him out.
In Tourist Trap Upgrade was used to combat Megawhatt, an alien who grew more powerful the more electricity he fed on though Ben wanted to turn into another alien entirely. Upgrade showed surprising agility as he was able to stay on top of the rubber band ball without falling off as he rolled it towards Megawhatt before the ball started to break. He also showcased the ability to fire lasers which Megawhatt dodged.
Upgrade then tried to catch Megawhatt but was constantly outmaneuvered. When he did eventually grab hold of Megawhatt, he was quickly blasted away by Megawhatt's electricity powers. Yet despite this Upgrade showed that he had both excellent strength and aim when he picked up a manhole cover and used it to slice Megawhatt in two.
Of course this just made things worse as the sliced Megawhatt regenerated so that the two halves became their own entity meaning that now Upgrade had to deal with two Megawhatts instead of one. Before Upgrade could do anything else he timed out.
In The Alliance Upgrade was used to take over Rojo's body showing that he is fully capable of taking over something sentient as long as they are at least partly technological in one way or another.
Though Rojo struggled she couldn't get free of Upgrade that is until Vilgax contacted Upgrade through Rojo telling him to "be afraid" which is when he lost his concentration and Rojo was able to throw him into a wall. Upgrade then took over some gym equipment and started attacking Rojo.
Upgrade also showed he was capable of switching to different forms of technology with ease. Upgrade switched to a treadmill and finally back to Rojo where he proceeded to short circuit her body (I think?) which caused the drone and Rojo to seperate.
Upgrade then grabbed an unconscious Rojo out of the collapsing building and leaving her up to the authorities.
In Last Laugh Upgrade was used against the circuis freak trio, this time possessing a baseball pitching machine. He was able to fire baseballs at Thumbskull with enough force to knock him out.
He then confronted Frightwig and although she ws able to throw them back using her hair, Upgrade shot a baseball at her leg which threw her upwards and got her tied up in her own hair.
Upgrade then confronted Acid Breath and proved he had exceptionally aim when he was able to shoot a baseball straight into his mouth before knocking him out before timing out.
In Side Effects Upgrade was easily able to possess a motorcycle. While in this state Upgrade was able to easily catch up to a criminal driving a car (and chances are he was speeding). Upgrade showed impressive reaction time as he was able to turn himself under a truck and resume pursuit.
He was then able to fire a laser at the boot of the criminal's car releasing all the stolen money. Upgrade was also shown to be able to create energy constructs while possessing technology as shown when he created an energy spike to slash at the car's wheels. This caused the car to crash and the crook was apprehended by the authorities.
In Secrets Upgrade possessed Gwen's laptop when she refused to play a game with him and was even able to create additional limbs to turn it into some sort of crab robot.
In the same episode after the Omnitrix turned him from Grey Matter into Upgrade, Upgrade was able to possess one of Vilgax's droids to take out the rest.
During the fight Vilgax was about to kill Max but Upgrade quickly pushed both himself and Vilgex out of the hole in the ship. Upgrade was then able to stretch out his body into that of a glider so that he could control his descent though itwas short lived as the Omnitrix still suffering from the power surge turned him into Ripjaws.
In Grudge Match Upgrade was used to take over a sentient super computer that had control over an entire space station. Unfortunately he lost control as soon as he gained it due to the complexity of the system but regained it when the computer took a punch to the face. Upgrade was then able to gain access to the escape pods sending most of the prisoners home but timed out before he was able to get into his own.
In They Lurk Below Upgrade was used to upgrade a submarine showing how much surface area he can absorb. He was able to absorb both the entire exterior AND interior of the submarine. What's even more impressive is that the submarine was so broken that it hadn't run in 80 years before Upgrade touched it.
Here's how big the submarine is in comparison to Max:
In Midnight Madness a hypnotized Ben turned into Upgrade who started shorting out any technology he morphed into. He was then able to partially knock a helicopter off course.
Upgrade was then riddled with bullets but it really didn't do anything and Upgrade was able to morph into the helicopter that fired on him. Upgrade then morphed into a clock face and was able to rotate the arms so fast that he was able to fly through the air.
In Game Over Upgrade proved he could affect software as well as hardware which is shown when he jumps into a video game to reduce Gwen's score to zero. Of course this pissed Gwen off and she started shaking Upgrade while he was in the game. Unfortunately the RV got struck by lightning and this combined with Upgrade's physiology got both him and Gwen stuck in the world of the video game.
Even while in the video game Upgrade was able to possess technology and use it to attack the other grunts.
Later Upgrade easily fought and defeated Kenko, a shapeshifter, using his malleable body. He was able to open holes in himself to allow fire to pass through and possessed Kenko resulting in his defeat.
Upgrade then created a portal to get both him and Gwen out of the game
In Under Wraps Upgrade was able to gain control of two containers of liquid nitrogen and shoot it out at the Mummy and was partially frozen by it.
In Afraid of the Dark Upgrade was used to create a spaceship so that Ben could get into space to help Max and Gwen.
While he easily smashed through several floors and was easily making it out of the atmosphere in seconds, Victor had grabbed onto him and started electrocuting him. Upgrade fired a green laser at victor before punching him in the face.
Unfortunately Victor was pretty friggin tough and tanked several more laser blasts as well as punches from Upgrade.
Upgrade eventually reached the station and ditched the rocket. Oh by the way Upgrade can survive in space.
Upgrade easily infiltrated the satellite and found the Mummy before firing a green laser at him and fired him out the air lock. Unfortunately he brought Zs'skayr with him when he was in rocket form and the Omnitrix timed out.
In Divided We Stand Upgrade survived being stretched apart by octopus tentacles.
When he was able to get free Upgrade merged with the tower on the ship and was able to wrap the tentacles in his own coils before shooting out green electricity.
In Ben 4 Good Buddy Upgrade was used to take over an entire train carriage.
Whats impressive though is that he was able to make the train work without train tracks.
In Destroy All Aliens Upgrade was able to take over a tank and turn it into this giant thing.
After 142 episodes Upgrade makes a reappearance in OTTO Motives where he was able upgrade Kevin's car to give it flight capabilities and then upgrade it even further so that it became a Transformer! He then engaged Otto in combat and was able to tank being shot at by a laser blast and sent flying into a cliff. Upgrade finished the fight when he was able to 'upgrade' Otto's 'body' by simply touching it and flicked Otto off it by flicking him.
In Something Zombozo This Way Comes Upgrade fought zombie clown Rook and used various technology to do so. These included a cotton candy machine which he made cotton candy able to withstand lasers, a popcorn machine which he upgraded by making a popcorn Gatling gun and Rook's own Plumber Tool which he used to generate an electrical current to incapacitate Rook.
Weaknesses
Despite being surprisingly agile Upgrade can still be outmaneuvered by quicker and more agile opponents like Megawhatt in Tourist Trap.
As seen in Tourist Trap Upgrade is a great conductor due to being made of metal which makes him a bad pick against electrical based opponents.
According to Ben in Outbreak Upgrade is sensitive to electro-magnetic fields. This was later proven in Animo Crackers and proved to be particularly fatal to him.

Ghostfreak
Now this is one of Ben's most intriguing aliens. Ghostfreak is an Ectonurite from the planet Anur Phaenos. He also has the distinction of being the FIRST alien to escape the Omnitrix on his own. More on that later.
Anyways like Grey Matter, Ghostfreak wasn't first used for any noble deed, but to escape from his Aunt Vera's house after only five minutes of being there. Talk about disrespectful. Well on the upside at least he was able to showcase some of his abilities such as intangibility and invisibility which he used to phase through walls.
Ghostfreak can be forced out of the bodies he possesses if the possessed has a strong enough will.
Any infiltration via possession will fail if Ben cannot get the way his opponent speaks down.

Well on the upside at least he was able to showcase some of his abilities such as intangibility and invisibility which he used to phase through walls.
Ben also used these abilities to scare the crap out of poor Gwen when she was listening to a seashell. I mean LOOK at her face.
He then decided to escape as soon as Gwen figured out it was him. Also just in case you didn't believe me when I said he could make himself invisible; here's him driving a golf cart.
In Hunted he was
used against Kraab and actually lost pretty badly. See, Kraab had this weird
liquid and whatever it was it solidified Ghostfreak which rendered his
abilities inert. Kraab was now able to punch Ghostfreak and laser blast him.
In Last Laugh Ghostfreak was used to combat Zombozo and he was able to throw Zombozo into his machine so hard that it exploded letting everyone's souls back into their respective bodies.
Ghostfreak then opened up his chest and although we don't know whats inside, it was scary enough to make Zombozo explode.
In Secrets after pretty much all of his aliens failed the Omnitrix turned Ben from Diamondhead to Ghostfreak. This allowed Ben to survive Vilgax's punch.
Ghostfreak then phased into the ground, escaping from Vilgax knowing that this was one fight he just couldn't win.
Now here is where things get interesting. In Ghostfreaked Out Ghostfreak was able to actually affect Ben's mind and make him see things. This is incredible because all the aliens in the Omnitrix are essentially blank templates of the species for Ben to use. There have been three other scenarios of aliens affected Ben from within the watch and one where they actually escaped the Omnitrix. In that scenario they were essentially fighting on instinct alone with no mind to have separate lives. Anyway first Ghostfreak attacked Ben's dreams.
Then he started making Ben hallucinate, telling Ben to "Let him out".
Then Ghostfreak was actually able to affect the real world by showing limited pyrokinesis and causing all the beakers to break.
He was then able to cause the fire alarm to start.
Later in the episode Ghostfreak was used against the Circuis Freak Trio but you can tell from all the things he's done so far that he wasn't the intended alien (It was Heatblast). Anyway Ghostfreak used his intangibility to avoid being hit by their attacks, went underground and was able to easily lift a gym mattress with Acid Breath on it.
Ghostfreak was then able to attack Thumbskull by putting his hands into Thumbskull's head and doing something (It looked like Thumbskull was being electrocuted so maybe he was squeezing Thumbskull's brain?)
Ghostfreak then dealt with Frightwig in an equally disturbing way. When confronted by Gwen, Ghostfreak revealed that Ben was not in control. The Circus Freak Trio tried to escape but Ghostfreak took pursuit. That was until he was about to time out and this was when he actually escaped the Omnitrix.
Ghostfreak then used this opportunity to reveal his true form as Z'skayr. (Also fun fact but an ectonurite's (Ghostfreak's species) consciousness can exist in a just a few strands of DNA).
Now because Z'skayr is Ghostfreak's DNA sample, any and all feats that he does apply to Ghostfreak as well. Ghostfr- I mean Z'skayr attempted to possess Ben but got burned when he touched sunlight. Because Ghostfreak didn't have this weakness we can assume it was possibly the Omnitrix's doing. Z'skayr then possessed some posh student so that he could walk in sunlight ( I dunno why seeings as he can just fade into the ground but whatever).
Later Z'skayr tried to possess Ben but was unable to do so because Ben was using Four Arms at the time. Z'skayr's plan was to wait it out until the Omnitrix timed out but he had to make some slight adjustments because Max had a 'Sun Gun' which 'projects a beam as bright as sunlight'. Z'skayr negated this weakness by possessing a host body (Thumbskull). However Four Arms was able to defeat all of the Circus Freak Trio. Z'skayr then possessed Gwen to play on Ben's weakness. Four Arms then timed out. Yet by some miracle the Omnitrix recharged so Z'skayr couldn't take over Ben's body.
Ben turned into Grey Matter and while he was able to hide from Z'skayr for a brief period of time, he eventually timed out. Z'skayr was about to finally possess Ben but Ben was able to open the curtains and kill Z'skayr with the convenient sunrise. Of course this brought Ben to just 11 aliens for the time being as he could not access Ghostfreak (not that he would want to) after this episode.
In Afraid of the Dark Zs'skayr returned and showed that he was capable of turning other things intangible as well.
Zs'skayr also demonstrated the ability to fire lasers while in his true form.
In Ghost Town Zs'skayr was able to turn an entire planet's population into Ectonurites in a matter of weeks. He was able to keep up with Vilgax in hand to hand combat and displayed telekinesis. He only lost the fight because Vilgax exploited his aversion to light.
In The Ultimate Sacrifice Ben used Ghostfreak to escape the Sentient Ultimates but ended up frozen by sentient Ultimate Big Chill before turning into Heatblast.
In Mystery, Incorporeal Ghostfreak fought and defeated Darkstar. He used his intangibility to save Xagliv and proved to be completetly immune to life-force draining attacks for the soul reason of him being "a ghost" (which still has life-force but whatever). He took full control of Darkstar and made him hit himself. Using Darkstar's body Ghostfreak was also able to use mana.
In Bengeance is Mine Ghostfreak was used to prevent Ben from being crushed by falling debris. He was able to phase through Psyphon's lasers and a bus before using his tentacles to catch the same bus.
In Charm School Ghostfreak fought Charmcaster and served as little more than a distraction due to the fact that he didn't use his intangibity or try to possess her. Instead he only used his claws and flight and was forced to tank a mana blast from the Staff of Ages.
In Vreedlemania Ghostfreak phased through a car and possessed Ma Vreedle so that he could get the Vreedles to stop destroying the city. Unfortunately Ben couldn't quite get how Ma Vreedle talks down so he was quickly found out and sent into a car.
In Malgax Attacks Ghostfreak fought some of Vilgax's drones and displayed enough strength to throw one into a nearby building. His claws were sharp enough to damage the circuitry and caused several more to explode.
In A New Dawn Ghostfreak fought a zombie redcoat and when possession failed, Ghostfreak was able to restrain him using his tentacles.
In Secrets after pretty much all of his aliens failed the Omnitrix turned Ben from Diamondhead to Ghostfreak. This allowed Ben to survive Vilgax's punch.

In Vreedlemania Ghostfreak phased through a car and possessed Ma Vreedle so that he could get the Vreedles to stop destroying the city. Unfortunately Ben couldn't quite get how Ma Vreedle talks down so he was quickly found out and sent into a car.
Weaknesses
Any opponent who has a counter to intangibility and
invisibility like Kraab’s liquid will obviously make things much harder for
Ghostfreak.
Ghostfreak can be forced out of the bodies he possesses if the possessed has a strong enough will.
Any infiltration via possession will fail if Ben cannot get the way his opponent speaks down.
Cannonbolt
Oh I'm sorry did I say Ben had access to only 10 aliens? I lied. Cannonbolt is an Alburian Pelarota who hails from the planet Alburia. Which is destroyed. Moving on. Cannonbolt was first unlocked in the episode The Big Tick and completely on accident. Ben was trying to use XLR8 to get a double cheeseburger and although Gwen was initially opposed to the idea she was much more opposed to Max's 'food' so she tried to help Ben to get the Omnitrix to work. Unfortunately instead of transforming into XLR8 Ben turned into Cannonbolt and was so shocked he fell on the ground unable to get himself back up. I would normally put this under his "weaknesses" but Ben was just learning how to use the hero and didn't even know what it did. When he fell over again due to a flaming meteor flying overhead, he found that he was actually able to roll into a ball to increase maneuverability.
Cannonbolt was able to easily dodge 'The Great One's' roots. When he found out that 'The Great One' was going to 'purify' (destroy) the planet he quickly attacked one of the leaders but was hit back by the force of the axe.
After Ben had tried everyone at his disposal and failed to even make a dent in the tick, Ben tried Cannonbolt again. Although he fell on his back again he was able to right himself without outside help. Cannonbolt then quickly took out the head cultist by slamming into him.
Cannonbolt was then able to go in the other direction and save Gwen and Max from falling to their deaths.
Cannonbolt was then able to use his armor to deflect the incoming lasers and one of these lasers was actually reflected back at the cultists taking them out.
Despite what some may believe Cannonbolt is actually quite good at turning as he was able to easily dodge the tick's incoming slime shots.
After a failed attempt at penetrating the tick's armor Cannonbolt was then able to jump several meters into the air so that the tick would eat him.
After he was inside the tick, Cannonbolt played pinball with its internal organs as obstacles. This caused the tick to internally bleed (I assume) and explode.
In Grudge Match despit the Omnitrix timing out a couple minutes earlier, it recharged itself to save Ben's life and Ben was able to turn into Cannonbolt to protect him from Kevin. Cannonbolt armor was durable enough to protect him from Kevin's Diamondhead arm.
Cannonbolt was then able to break free from Kevin's slime and play a round of pinball. As he bounced off the walls he kept getting faster and faster and Kevin wasn't able to land a hit on him (though not for lack of trying).
Cannonbolt was then able to land quite a few hits on Kevin and was even able to roll into him with enough force that he went flying into a wall defeating him.
Cannonbolt was able to get into an escape pod but Kevin wasn't done yet and tried to get into the escape pod. Cannonbolt only escaped thanks to Technorg not leaving and saving his life (though if you ask me Cannonbolt still could have taken Kevin down. It was only due to the fact that if he didn't leave straight away he would be stuck in another galaxy).
In The Galactic Enforcers Cannonbolt was used to stop Sixsix and Vulkanus. Cannonbolt was moving so fast that Sixsix was unable to hit him even with all the advanced weapons.
Cannonbolt then attacked Sixsix but Sixsix was able to deflect him using some sword and Cannonbolt was sent flying into a vat of molten lava. Luckily Cannonbolt was rescued by one of the Galactic Enforcers. Cannonbolt was then able to roll at such speeds that he was able to dodge laser fire and knock Sixsix out. Cannonbolt was then used to recieve an explosive that 'could destroy an entire solar system'.
In Camp Fear Cannonbolt was used to stop a kid from falling to his death off a cliff. Cannonbolt was falling for a similar amount of time (6.21 seconds) as Wildmutt when he fell down a cliff in Permanent Retirement (6.5 seconds).
Using the equation: Vf = vi + at
= 0 + 9.8 x 6.21
= Both Cannonbolt and the kid were moving at 60.858 m/s
Using the equation: d=vt + 1/2at^2
=(60.858 x 6.21) + (4.9 x 38.5641)
= The cliff was 566.89227 meters.
The kid he saved only had a few scrapes and bruises which is pretty good seeings as he fell off a 500 meter cliff.
In Back with a Vengeance Cannonbolt was used to drop down Niagra Falls in an attempt to attack both Vilgax and Kevin 11. He then hid away from Kevin and Vilgax but Vilgax then decided to use Max and Gwen as hostages.
In A Change of Face Cannonbolt was used to stop Charmcaster. While she did initally dodge him, Cannonbolt just proved again how easily he could turn. He also proved that he could pick things up in ball form as he used an anchor and chain to tie Charmcaster up.
In Benwolf Cannonbolt was used to battle the Yenaldooshi. The Yenaldooshi struck first but fortunately Cannonbolt is so fat that he bounced off him.
Cannonbolt then went into ball form to attack the Yenaldooshi, bounced into the air so high that he hit the cave ceiling and landed on top of the Yenaldooshi.
Unfortunatly the Yenaldooshi recovered and threw Cannonbolt into the wall so hard that it actually caused a hole in which lava could flow from. This did prove that Cannonbolt or his back at least is impervious to lava.
The cave began to collapse in on itself so Cannonbolt had to seal it off but he also had to deal with the Yenaldooshi. The cave entrance collapsed in on itself but Cannonbolt simply burst out of the ground revealing he was ok.
In The Return Cannonbolt was used to fight The Mummy and easily used the bandages as a means of direction straight to him.
When the Mummy tried to mutate Gwen using Corrodium, Cannonbolt was easily able to protect her by grabbing her and rolling into a ball which he also attacked the Mummy again. When the Yenaldooshi attacked Max, Cannonbolt quickly came to the rescue and 'threw' the Yenaldooshi into a rocket ship.
Cannonbolt was doing pretty well until Dr Victor striked him with purple lightning (the fact that its purple is very important).
Still while Cannonbolt was electrocuted and stunned momentarily, he got right back up seconds later. During the fight Cannonbolt was able to withstand the weight of a rocket ship to protect Max and Gwen. Though this rocket ship was in a scrap yard so its unlikely that it had the weight of a functional rocket ship.
In Be Afraid of the Dark Cannonbolt was used to save Gwen, Max and himself from atmospheric re-entry. When the ship exploded, Cannonbolt was used so that they didn't die in space.
His shell also seems to be a really good insulater for heat as even as he was burning up, Max and Gwen were unharmed.
He was going so fast that he left this gigantic crater at the moment of his impact.
In Don't Drink the Water Cannonbolt was used to combat Hex. He was able to attack Hex and bounce several meters into the sky to put Hex in a carnival ride.
He was able to stop the ride by rolling the other way and this is impressive considering the ride is similar to the Round Up which has a maximum rpm (revolutions per minute) of 18.5 which mean the ride at maximum speed was doing one revolution every 3.243 seconds.
In Big Fat Alien Wedding Cannonbolt was used to collide with a speeding truck which then exploded.
Unfortunately this set fire to the surroundings but fortunately this was near a lake. Cannonbolt went "Cannonbolt Cannonball!" and into the lake which generated a temporary water spout.
In War of the Worlds Cannonbolt was used to take out a large number of DNAliens.
In Vengeance of Vilgax Cannonbolt was used to defeat Ssserpant (rather easily I might add). Ssserpant had previously easily overpowered both Gwen and Kevin at the same time. Gwen herself said that her and Kevin had been "fighting that guy for over an hour" yet Cannonbolt defeated him in less than a minute.
In Primus Cannonbolt fought Vilgax and kicked him into the Codon Stream. Cannonbolt had surprisingly enough arm strength to pull himself up.
In Video Games Cannonbolt fought the Stalker and lost because some sticky substance prevented him from using his roll attack.
In Map of Infinity Cannonbolt used his roll attack to literally break through the walls of the temple and make a mad dash for the Rust Bucket 3 before he timed out. He didn't quite get there but he got close enough.
In Where the Magic Happens Cannonbolt used his roll attack to defeat several stone creatures.
In Perplexahedron Cannonbolt fought Aggregor but was easily defeated so he went Ultimate.
In Revenge of the Swarm Cannonbolt fought Victor Vladius. He surprisingly had enough strength to tackle Victor out the window without using his roll attack.
In Its Not Easy Being Gwen Cannonbolt fought Dr. Animo and did have some good hits in but he had to go Ultimate to actually defeat Animo.
In The More Things Change: Part 1 Cannonbolt was used to fight a gang consisting of Bubble Helmet, Fistina and Liam. As you can guess he effortlessly defeated them using his roll attack and was even durable enough to have a rocket propelled fist bounce right off him.
In Trouble Helix Cannonbolt was able to endure being hit by a barrage of laser blasts and he wasn't even in ball form.
Later in the episode Cannonbolt was used to fight Malware. He was easily able to dodge Malware's lasers and was able to 'wall-climb' in his ball form though because he kept rolling around in the same predictable circle Malware was eventually able to hit him.
In Vilgax Must Croak Cannonbolt was used to fend off Attea and her bounty hunters. He was easily able to roll over Attea and SixSix and took out SevenSeven with slightly more effort. His shell was able to rebound one of Attea's laser blasts back towards EightEight before crushing Attea again.
In For a Few Brains More Cannonbolt displayed limited space survivability and was able to generate enough propulsion in space to roll into Albedo's ship (somehow).
In And Then There Were Ben No Watch Ben used Cannonbolt to change the trajectory of the Omnitrix's 'flight' path so that it would land near Ben Prime. In doing so he also survived atmospheric re-entry... again.
In The Vengers Cannonbolt prevented both him and Rook from falling to their deaths. During a fight with the Vengers, Cannonbolt was also able to punch through concrete. He effortlessly overpowered Captain Nemesis and was easily able to tank Billy's laser blasts.
In No Honor Among Bros Cannonbolt fought Fistina who had equipped the Golden Fist (which was vaguely Infinity Gauntlet-esque). He tanked a hit that sent him through the roof to the ceiling of Undertown and was forced to tank several other hits from the same Golden Fist. Cannonbolt then tanked a Phased Particle Cannon which sent him through the wall. He did eventually land some hits on her but then the Omnitrix timed out.
Cannonbolt was then able to break free from Kevin's slime and play a round of pinball. As he bounced off the walls he kept getting faster and faster and Kevin wasn't able to land a hit on him (though not for lack of trying).
In The Galactic Enforcers Cannonbolt was used to stop Sixsix and Vulkanus. Cannonbolt was moving so fast that Sixsix was unable to hit him even with all the advanced weapons.
In Camp Fear Cannonbolt was used to stop a kid from falling to his death off a cliff. Cannonbolt was falling for a similar amount of time (6.21 seconds) as Wildmutt when he fell down a cliff in Permanent Retirement (6.5 seconds).
Using the equation: Vf = vi + at

Weaknesses
Though Cannonbolt is fast he is able to be hit backwards, completely changing his direction.
Some sticky substance, if stick enough, can hold Cannonbolt in place preventing him from using his roll attack as seen in his fight with the Stalker.
Some sticky substance, if stick enough, can hold Cannonbolt in place preventing him from using his roll attack as seen in his fight with the Stalker.
Wildvine
Wildvine is Florauna from the planet Flors Verdance though they can also be found on Xenon. He was first unlocked in the episode Camp Fear. While Ben was captured by sentient plants, the Omnitrix unlocked this alien to help him escape from the plants. Wildvine displayed the ability to sprout spikes (or thorns if you prefer) from himself to break the vines holding him captive.
He then used this ability to free Max in a single swipe.
As it turns out he can also talk to plants and hear what they say and this is evident by the fact that Max was unable to hear the plants talking to him.
Wildvine is also able to stretch out his limbs and stick to the ceiling. Using this he was able to swing around the cave to save Max.
While he was doing this he discovered that his seeds could be potentially explosive. He used these seeds to try and do some damage.
Wildvine also showed that he could sharpen the thorns on his arms so that he could use them as blades to slice up the plant brain.
In Tough Luck Wildvine was used to battle Hex. He had the upper hand but lost it when he saved Max and Gwen from falling to their deaths on a roller coaster. One roller-coaster car weighs about 535 kg. There was about 4 cars plus Max (110 kg) and Gwen (40kg) who weigh about 150 kg. This means Wildvine was able to lift 2,290 kg (nearly 2.3 tonnes) which means he would've had to exert 22,442 Newtons of Force.
Wildvine was then used to reach up and grab the charms of bezel before crushing them in his vines.
In Back with a Vengeance, Wildvine was able to use his vines to bungee jump.
In Midnight Madness Wildvine was used to swing across the mall. Wildvine proved to be immune to Sublimino's hypnosis. When Gwen drove off the floor Wilvine proved to be mallaeable enoguh to create a makeshift hammock to save her and Max.
What's even more impressive is that to do this he went down ten stories then went back up ten stories all before the car could crash into the ground from ten stories up. Wildvine then confronted Sublimino but was attacked by four chainsaw wielding hynotees. Wildvine grabbed onto the ceiling and used his seeds to generate a smoke screen made of various chemicals that knocked them out (so knock out gas).
Wildvine then captured Sublimino and was able to set everyone free from his hypnosis.
In Benwolf Wildvine was used to stop Max and Wes from falling to their deaths.
He then attempted to engage the Yenaldooshi in combat but by the time he got back up the cliff, the Yenaldooshi was already gone. The Yenaldooshi scaled up cliffs but Wildvine was able to track him underground and quickly constrict him using his vines.
Unfortunately the Yeanaldooshi was able to bite him. This didn't deter Wildvine and he just dragged the Yenaldooshi underground ten meters before throwing him back out of the ground.
He was about to finish the Yenaldooshi off but the Omnitrix timed out and the Yenaldooshi was able to slash at Ben.
In Super Alien Hero Buddies Wildvine was used to swing around Planetary Studios. He did so by extending his arms and used them as vines to get around quicker. It was going pretty good until he had to fight a robot dinosaur that could breathe fire. Luckily Wildvine was able to dodge the flame bursts and defeat it by implanting thorns into its 'brain' causing it to short circuit.
Wildvine was then used to save Tim Dean from being lowered into a vat of burning chemicals. He was then used to save Gwen, Dean and Able North from being killed by the surrounding fire and explosions. Wildvine found out that Kane North (the real Kangaroo Commando) was behind it but Kane had already escaped. Wildvine took pursuit and found that he was pretty good at jumping long distances.
Long story short Wildvine was easily able to subdue Kangaroo Commando but timed out.
In The Visitor Wildvine showed that he was capable of merging with plants and changing his skin color so he could camouflage himself and follow Max and Xylene.
After 122 episodes Wildvine finally makes a reappearance in Outbreak where he is used to spar with Rook. During their spar Wildvine was able to use his tendrils to smash concrete pillars.
In Ben Again Wildvine was used to try and retrieve the chrono-navigator but was unable to cross over through the time stream. However, he was able to dodge several of Eon's time blasts so there's that. He then tried again and because Eon was in his time zone, Wildvine was able to easily grab onto his arm until Eon created a shockwave knocking both Wildvine and Arctiguana back.
In Evil's Encore Wildvine was able to hold up a giant platform to prevent Gwen and Max from being crushed. Once they got past it, he let it go. He then had to save Max and Gwen when their air supply was being choked off (why his wasn't is anyone's guess).
In Rad Monster Party Wildvine fought Kuphulu and displayed his digging ability to dodge Kuphulu's attacks before getting cocky and being slammed into a wall. He then displayed the ability to use Swampfire's plant growing seeds to grow vines from the ground. After getting tangled up in Kuphulu's bandages, Wildvine crashed into Kuphulu with enough force to send him through a wall.
In Rook Tales Wildvine attempted to fight Kundo using his explosive seeds and elesticity abilities but was quickly defeated.
In Breakpoint Wildvine was used to infiltrate Fitrick's"brojo" and find out his next scheme. During his infiltration he was strong enough to lift a couple of heavy barbells.
Later in the episode Wilvine was able to benchpress one of these barbells 275 times,
152 episodes later Frankenstrike returns to fight Phil in his Terroranchula form. Simply transforming into Frankestrike was enough to summon green lightning. He then engaged Phil in hand to hand combat but was blasted away by a laser. Frankenstrike used his electrokiniesis to make a manhole cover fly up before turning it into a projectile. Unfortunately Phil was able to exploit Frankenstrike's weakness in his conduits. Frankenstrike then slammed Phil into the wall and was surprisingly agile enough to dodge a close range laser. Frankenstrike was then able to crash a car by being knowledgeable enough to short out the battery. He was also clever enough to come up with a strategy to defeat Phil though whether this was Ben or Frankenstrike is a mystery.
In Something Zombozo This Way Comes Frankenstrike fought against a whole mob of zombie clowns but because they were still human, Frankenstrike easily dealt with the problem. He then fought and defeated Frightwig, Acid Breath and Thumbskull using his brute strength and electricity so powerful it disintegrated some prank jaws.
In Cough It Up Frankenstrike was able to generate a large electrical blast, so powerful that it sent Kraab flying out the window.
In The Color of Monkey Frankenstrike chased after one of Argistix' delivery trucks and was able to jump over buildings with a single leap. He also fought one of the Techadon security guards and would've defeated it had it not been for its regeneration ability (and the Omnitrix timing out).
Upgrade is a Gourman from the planets Peptos 1 to Peptos 12. Peptos 12 is currently their home planet due to them destroying Peptos 1 to 11 due to the F***ING EATING THEM. There are 63 planets in the Peptos system so once the Gourmands get to and eat Peptos 63, they'll probably find some other poor system to devour. Upchuck is unique in that he can switch between Perk and Murk, the two races of his species.
In The Visitor Xylene unlocked Upchuck for Ben to use to save Max. Upchuck has four prehensile tounges which he can use to grab things and eat them.
Upchuck engaged the mechadroid in combat and was able to fit tyres into his mouth.
After eating several objects Upchuck was able to spit out some sort of explosive acid to harm the Mechadroid.
Upchuck was also able to fit a missile launcher into his mouth and proceeded to use the materials to generate in his word "exploding loogies".
Upchuck eventually destroyed enough of the Mechadroid to get to his brain and I don't think I have to tell you what he did with it.
In Ben 4 Good Buddy Upchuck was used against the Road Crew where he ate a couple of cans of oil and spat them out as acid.
Upchuck was then chained and dragged along the road before being thrown into a window.
Upchuck then tried to get back into the fight but he got hit by a speeding car and slammed through a concrete wall instead.
In Ben 10 vs the Negative 10: Part 2 Upchuck was able to endure a landslide. Not only that he was able to actually eat some of the landslide to produce a giant explosive blast.
Upchuck was then able to eat shurikens covered in energy thrown at him by the Forever Ninja and spit them back out so that it would damage and overload the Forever Ninja's suit.
Upchuck was then able to digest a couple of rocks and generate enough energy to stop Driscoll's sub-energy blast (the same one that was able to cause a landslide).
Upchuck fired a few more laser blast to little effect and Upchuck proved to be surprisingly agile when he dodged one of Driscoll's laser blasts.
Upchuck then did something extremely foolish and used his four tounges to grab and swallow the sub-energy. This is extremely foolsish as sub-energy has been stated to "make our nuclear warheads look like wind-up toys", "20 times more powerful then the sun" and "if its released it could level an entire continent".
The sub-energy started making Upchuck grow to at least twice his size.
Upchuck then released the sub-energy and span around so fast that he created a vortex.
This vortex was able to destroy a good portion of Mount Rushmore.
In Secret of the Omnitrix Upchuck revealed that he could make his vomit curve so he could hit Myaxx (who he thought was Vilgax).
Even though Upchuck missed it still created a huge explosion.
Upchuck was able to fire several blasts consecutively even though he hadn't eaten anything.
Murk Upchuck makes his debut in War of the Worlds in which he was used to eat a large laser blast fired at him before spitting it back out.
In Vengeance of VilgaxUpchuck fought Chromastone eating the energy Chromastone shot out at him. He then shot it back out which resulted n Chromastone absorbing it and shooting it back out which Upchuck ate .etc This went on until Kevin knocked Chromastone out.
In In Charm's Way upchuck was used to fight a sentient giant Mr. Smoothy cup. You can probably guess how it ended. Upchuck drank the entirety of the cup and because this is the only feat that I saved here we go:
In The Ultimate Heist Eye Guy was used to fight Ultimate Humungousaur and demonstrated the ability to manipulate his fire into a ring around him though Albedo turned into Ultimate Echo Echo and effortlessly defeated Eye Guy with Sonic Doom.
In Mystery, Incorporeal Eye Guy was able to use his laser blasts to one shot rock monsters, one of which was 10 meters in the air.
In The Ballad of Mr. Baumann Eye Guy proved to be allergic to Mr Baumann's cologne. However, his eyesight is so advanced that he can actually see the stench trail allowing him to track Mr. Baumann.
In It's a Mad, Mad, Mad Ben World: Part 2 Eye Guy fought Mad Ben's goons and was able to disarm most of them with his laser blasts.
In From Hedorium to Eternity Eye Guy disarmed Max.
Wildvine is also able to stretch out his limbs and stick to the ceiling. Using this he was able to swing around the cave to save Max.
Wildvine was then used to reach up and grab the charms of bezel before crushing them in his vines.
In Back with a Vengeance, Wildvine was able to use his vines to bungee jump.

Blitzwolfer
Blitzwolfer, formerly know as Benwolf, is a Loboan who comes from Luna Lobo, the moon of Anur Transyl. He is the first alien to actually be scanned into the Omnitrix rather than be unlocked through the Codon Stream. Unfortunately Ben doesn't use him all that often, he has four noteworthy episodes in all four series (and he only appears in two of the comics) but at least when he is put to action, he's pretty frickin awesome.
Anyways Blitzwolfer's DNA sample came from the Yenaldooshi that first appeared in Benwolf. The Yenaldooshi got its ass kicked pretty hard and was about to lose to Wildvine but the Omnitrix timed out. This gave the Yenaldooshi time to lash out at Ben and allowed the Omnitrix to scan it. Unfortunately there were some unexpected side effects and it took longer for Ben to be able to turn into Blitzwolfer. Instead of instantaneous transformation, Ben started mutating slowly. First it was just scratching himself like a dog. Then his skin color changed and he started to grow claws. Ben started growing facial hair and fangs and you get the point. There were three phases to his transformation which is best displayed in this comic:
The transformation reached its third stage but was still not complete. Ben couldn't turn back human and unfortunately the Yenaldooshi attacked him. Blitzwolfer, despite not being a complete transformation, was able to grab the Yenaldooshi and throw him to the ground. The Yenaldooshi decided to release a sonic scream which threw Blitzwolfer into the cliff wall.
Blitzwolfer then fought against the Yenaldooshi but the Yenaldooshi proved to be more powerful than him and better at hand-to-hand combat. Max provided a distraction which allowed Blitzwolfer to catch the Yenaldooshi off guard. Suddenly he was doing much better at fighting the Yenaldooshi and this could likely be due to the transformation reaching completion. Though Blitzwolfer was fighting much better now, the Yenaldooshi got away. After this the the transformation was finally complete and Blitzwolfer pursued the Yenaldooshi.
While in the caves Blitzwolfer saved Kai and Gwen from dying in lava. He displayed excellent jumping ability.
He then displayed the ability to release a sonic howl and used this to propel himself into the air so he could save Max and Wes from falling into the lava. Oh yeah he also has enhanced strength but that's kind of a given with these aliens isn't it.
After dealing with Big Ben's noise Blitzwolfer fought the Forever Ninja in An American Benwolf in London and was able to use his sonic howl to hepel the knives thrown at him. Blitzwolfer then displayed great agility in dodging the Forever Ninja's attacks before jumping to the top of the tower and swinging around it to defeat him. Blitzwolfer then displayed enough strength to bend metal and using it as a ladder to save Kai.
In Catfight Blitzwolfer fought Nyancy Chan but timed out upon seeing the Incusean and Tetramand armadas above him.
In Secret of Dos Santos Blitzwolfer fought the Jungle Guardian and his claws were able to scratch through sone but other than that he wasn't able to harm it. Skurd then created an Echo Echo megaphone to amplify Blitzwolfer's screams and it did a damn good job as it was able to not only defeat the Jungle Guardian but also uproot and/or flatten the nearby trees.

Skurd then created an Echo Echo megaphone to amplify Blitzwolfer's screams and it did a damn good job as it was able to not only defeat the Jungle Guardian but also uproot and/or flatten the nearby trees.
Weaknesses
Blitzwolfer's enhanced hearing can be a problem when dealing with loud noises as shown when he struggled with the noise of Big Ben in close proximity in the episode An American Benwolf in London.
Snare-oh
Snare-oh, formerly known as Benmummy, is a Thep Khufan from the planet Anur Khufos. Like Blitzwolfer, Snare-oh was scanned into the Omnitrix in the episode Under Wraps but unlike Blitzwolfer, Ben didn't use Snare-oh until The Return three episodes later and even after he does make his debut, Snare-oh only has four other notable appearances.
Alright I'll be scaling to The Mummy's feats in Under Wraps for this first bit due to Snare-oh's DNA signiture coming from him. Nevertheless take what I say here with a grain of salt. The Mummy was easily able to destroy a barn with just one of his bandages and was even able to keep up with XLR8 in combat, being able to tie him up and throw him into a water tower. When XLR8 escaped The Mummy was easily able to catch up to him, punch him off the water tower and defeated XLR8. Once Ben timed out The Mummy wrapped two supports with one of his bandages each and was able to pull with enough force that it brought down the entire tower. He used this opportunity to escape.
Later in the episode The Mummy survived being impaled by Diamondhead and was even able to wrap his bandages around him and throw him into the wall.
Eventually The Mummy was ripped to shreds by a giant fan but he survived that and was able to take Ben captive. Fortunately though the Omnitrix's fail safe activated and Ben was able to select another alien. He tried to get Snare-oh but got Upgrade instead. This was likely due to the Omnitrix realizing that Ben's inexperience with this alien would not help him in this fight. Upgrade then upgrade a couple of containers containing liquid nitrogen and froze the Mummy solid.
Snare-oh eventually made his debut in The Return where he was used to fight the Yenaldooshi. He proceeded to get his ass kicked but this was due to Ben not knowing how to use Snare-oh's powers. Ben eventually figured it out and was able to extend his bandages to shut the Yenaldooshi's mouth.
The Yenaldooshi ripped the bandages to shreds but Snare-oh was able to regenerate. Snare-oh then wrapped his bandages around the Yenaldooshi and was able to throw him into a window.
If fighting the Yenaldooshi with a new alien that you have no experience in using wasn't hard enough, they activated NASA's 20 G centrifuge and proceeded to fight on top of that. Snare-oh wrapped his arms around it and proceeded to be dragged along by the centrifuge. Untrained individuals typically black out between 4 to 6 gs. Not only were the Yenaldooshi and Snare-oh going at these kinds of g forces but they were also fighting each other and didn't appear to notice.
In the same fight Snare-oh was able to dodge the Yenaldooshi's supersonic howl.
Snare-oh eventually made his debut in The Return where he was used to fight the Yenaldooshi. He proceeded to get his ass kicked but this was due to Ben not knowing how to use Snare-oh's powers. Ben eventually figured it out and was able to extend his bandages to shut the Yenaldooshi's mouth.
139 episodes later Snare-oh makes his return... completely by accident as the Omnitrix was just giving Ben random aliens. As it turns out Ben hadn't even used him off-screen as he "forgot what this one does". He quickly figured it out and extended his limbs to catch an Incursean ship. While holding onto the Incursean ship, Snare-oh was agile enough to dodge lasers fired at him by two other Incursean ships.
In Return to Forever Snare-oh was used to herd the pyroxivors back to their pen and also save a kineceleran child.
In Bengeance is Mine Snare-oh fought Psyphon and a group of squid monsters. He was easily capable of dodging Psyphon's lasers and was able to shapeshift this entire body to dodge a close range laser blast before reforming in a different location and was then able to disarm Psyphon. Of course this was only to stall for time and when the trap was starting to imprison Psyphon and the squid monsters Snare-oh turned himself into a few bandages and flew out.
In Secret of Dos Santos Snare-oh was able to save Rook and Kai from falling to their deaths. He then fought the guardian of the temple and survived being flattened. His bandages were also strong enough to rip off the guardian's face.
Weaknesses
As shown in Under Wraps The Mummy's (and by extension Snare-oh's) bandages can be grabbed in a fight resulting in them losing control of the battle and their opponent able to land a few solid hits on them.
The Mummy can be frozen by extreme cold substances such as liquid nitrogen. However he is able to wiithstand the cold for 6.81 seconds and even then he's not killed by it. (In comparison if a human tried to do this they would probably end up like the T-1000 except they wouldn't regnerate).
Frankenstrike
Frankenstrike, formerly known as Benvictor, is a Transylian from the planet Anur Transyl. Yeah its moon, Luna Lobo, is where Blitzwolfer's species comes from. He is the third alien to be scanned into the Omnitrix and the first to be used in his debut episode with no negative side effects. Frankenstrike's DNA sample came from Dr. Victor who is pretty friggin smart and was able to create dimensional portals. Unfortunately Frankenstrike does not possess these abilities. While Dwayne McDuffie tries to explain that Ben doesn't get any smarter as Frankenstrike due Victor not being the DNA sample (which is bullshit seeings as we clearly see Victor being scanned into the Omnitrix), the likely explanation is that Victor simply read a lot to get smarter and enhanced intelligence isn't an ability hardwired into Transylians like it is for Galvans. The latter ability I just put down to Ben not being strong or experienced enough (Maybe Ben 10,000 can do it?).
Anyway Frankenstrike was used to fight Zs'skayr and while he was able to block Zs'skayr's attacks his attacks were practically useless against Zs'skayr's intagibility. Though Zs'skayr eventually caught Frankenstrike's hand and Frankenstrike used this opportunity to electrocute him with green lightning.
After Zs'skayr brought him into outer space, Frankenstrike displayed the ability to create an electro-magnetic current around him so that he could stick to the outside of the ship. Oh and Frankenstrike can survive in space.
Zs'skayr threw him into the wall but it barely fazed Frankenstrike.
Frankenstrike then engaged Zs'skayr in a beam struggle.
Also just pointing this out but Zs'skayr even says that he is at his "full potential" so at the very least Frankenstrike's electricity was able to fight evenly with Zs'skayr's lasers.
152 episodes later Frankenstrike returns to fight Phil in his Terroranchula form. Simply transforming into Frankestrike was enough to summon green lightning. He then engaged Phil in hand to hand combat but was blasted away by a laser. Frankenstrike used his electrokiniesis to make a manhole cover fly up before turning it into a projectile. Unfortunately Phil was able to exploit Frankenstrike's weakness in his conduits. Frankenstrike then slammed Phil into the wall and was surprisingly agile enough to dodge a close range laser. Frankenstrike was then able to crash a car by being knowledgeable enough to short out the battery. He was also clever enough to come up with a strategy to defeat Phil though whether this was Ben or Frankenstrike is a mystery.
Weaknesses
Frankenstrike's conduits at his back are the source of his electricity and as such an opponent can grab onto them and absorb electricity through them such as Phil in Max's Monster.
Upchuck
In The Visitor Xylene unlocked Upchuck for Ben to use to save Max. Upchuck has four prehensile tounges which he can use to grab things and eat them.
Murk Upchuck makes his debut in War of the Worlds in which he was used to eat a large laser blast fired at him before spitting it back out.
In In Charm's Way upchuck was used to fight a sentient giant Mr. Smoothy cup. You can probably guess how it ended. Upchuck drank the entirety of the cup and because this is the only feat that I saved here we go:
Using the formula 2 x pi x r^2 x h we can find he volume of
the cup and in doing so how much Upchuck drank. The cup was slightly taller
than a billboard which makes the height around 14 feet or 4.27 metres. The
radius was hard to find until the episode showed us that the radius of the lid
was equal to Ben’s shins. The average shin height of a 15-year-old male is 86
cm. The formula is now 2 x pi x (0.86^2) x 4.27 which gives us a total volume
of 19.83 m ^3. This cup would have held at least 19,800 Litres or 19.8
MegaLitres. Even if the cup wasn’t full Upchuck still drank at least half that
amount due to Mr. Smoothy saying he’s “half empty” and Upchuck’s response that
he’s “half full”.
In The Purge Upchuck battled the Forever Knights and was going pretty well until the Forever Knights brought out a laser railgun in which he was instantly defeated.
In Inspector 13 Gwen as Upchuck was able to eat part of the Techadon Fatory. Said Factory was made out of some material that even Big Chill couldn't phase through nor could Kevin (the guy who can absorb all forms of matter) absorb it. In that episode alone the sole reason for it being in the exact same place as last time is because "no one can move it". While it wasn't Ben who was controlling Upchuck there's no reason to think Ben couldn't do it as Upchuck.
In Tummy Trouble Upchuck ate several tigers but because Ben was using Perk Upchuck, who is unable to eat organic materials, he vomited them back out.
In the same episode Upchuck displayed some sort of psychic connection to his species and planet and immediately knew that there was something wrong on Peptos XI.
According to Rook, "all Gourmand stomachs link to a trans-spacial bladder dimension" so in Laymen's terms he's pretty much Kirby without the copy ability. Later in the episode Upchuck helped in the destruction of Peptos XI. That's not a bad thing, in fact it was Plan Omega enacted by the Queen after the Incurseans invaded the planet. The Gourmands had eaten so much that they were able to use their vomit lasers to propel them to Peptos XII.
In Evi's Encore Upchuck was able to defeat Dr. Animo by using his tongue to fling Animo around the room and swallowing some control pad. This control pad gave Upchuck so much energy that the resulting explosion destroyed Mount Rushmore.
In For a Few Brains More Upchuck was able to completely swallow Crabdozer. Unfortuately the Nemetrix was enabled with Ultimatrix tech so Upchuck was forced to vomit an Ultimate Panuncian.
In The Rooters of All Evil Upchuck ate a tyre and then defeated both Swift and Leander using the resulting energy blasts.
In No Honor Among Bros Upchuck fought Rook and was easily able to eat the laser blasts coming his way before repelling back at his opponent. He then used his tongues to eat the jumbotron on the ceiling which would've defeated Rook had Ben not let his guard down.
In Universe vs. Tennyson Upchuck effortlessly defeated Thunderpig.
In From Hedorium to Eternity Upchuck inhales a soccer ball and inadvertantly wrecked Mr. Baumann's car with it.

Weaknesses
While Upchuck can digest metal, concrete and even a couple of cans of oil, he is unable to digest food such as pizza.
Ditto
Ditto is a Splixon from the planet Hathor. He was first unlocked in the episode Divided we Stand. He was used to take care of Animo's giant seagull but Ben had no idea what Ditto did (he was trying to turn into Stinkfly) which is how he found by total accident that he could create clones of himself.
They discovered they felt pain from one another when one Ditto was in the pseagull's beak. To solve this problem one of the Dittos plucked a feather from the bird to release him. It worked but it also pissed the seagull off. After this the Dittos were able to evade the seagull's attacks.
They were eventually able to lure the seagull into a volleyball net.
Of course a seagull of this size wouldn't be trapped so easily and it broke out of the net and got away.
Later when the Omnitrix recharged Ditto showed excellent co-ordination between each other and showed that they were capable of having four Dittos at a time.
There does come some added benefits with being Ditto. If one is too far away fom the others, the Omnitrix is unable to time out until all Dittos are within acceptable proximity with each other. According to Dr. Animo Ditto has "limitless cloning abilities" and while he may be a nutjob, he's also smart enough to mutate animals beyond repair and possibly the one of the few humans who can access the Omnitrix's DNA with only a piece of the Omnitrix (the rim piece to be specific) as well as not even have contact with the Omnitrix to access the DNA. Though the Dittos aren't telepathically linked, they can feel when one of them is close and if they get close enough, they can defy all laws of physics to freaking fly to their remaining Ditto.
Later in the episode the Dittos were able to leap from mutated lepidopterran to mutated lepidopterran with relative ease.
They were than able to kill one (by drowning it) which killed them all. After Animo's army was destroyed Ditto showed that the "limitless cloning abilities" comment held some water after all as he was able to create an army of himself in seconds.
In Ready to Rumble Ditto was used to take out armed mobsters and was used to save a woman from being sliced in half.
The Dittos then showed extreme co-ordination when it came to plans. One of them taunted Mr. Beck to get him to chase him which allowed another Ditto to release a bunch of logs so that Mr. Beck would be too preoccupied when another Ditto released another log that threw Mr. Beck into a wheelbarrow which was pushed into an object so that Mr. Beck went flying into the air so that he would land next to another Ditto which blew sawdust into his face. This caused him to run backwards where another Ditto tripped him up so that he fell on the floor.
Now after two separate series (123 episodes to be exact) Ditto finally makes a reappearance in Ben Again due to Ben not having Echo Echo at this point in time. He was used to essentially gang up on Eon and force Eon to retreat.
Present Day Ben finally uses Ditto again in O Mother, Where Art Thou? to fight the Pretty Boy clones but due to Ditto's lack in physical abilities, it went about as well as you would think. So Ditto had to use Ben's intelligenceto trick them and even then Rook had to come and save the day. Then Ma Vreedle disconnected the cable cars and Ditto was able to create a clone bridge to reach the car they needed.
In A Fistful of Brains Ditto attempted to escape his natural predator, the Panuncian who had the exact same duplication ability. All things considered he did pretty well and through a combination of luck and skill Ditto was able to temporarily get away from the Panuncian. Ditto also displayed his mobility underground and his ability to dig rather quickly.
Of course through a combination of Ben's stupidity and Ditto's lacking in physicality Ditto eventually did get captured but not before he demonstrated the ability to be able to climb stalagmites.
In Universe vs. Tennyson Ditto was able to jump from the roof of the Proto-TRUK to the roof of Mr Baumann's vehicle and was agile enough to dodge Fistrick's lasers. He got cocky though and Fistrick was able to hit Ditto by throwing his blaster at him. Ditto was able to hold on to the edge of the vehicle and get inside it. Unfortunately for him the Omnitrix timed out.
Now after two separate series (123 episodes to be exact) Ditto finally makes a reappearance in Ben Again due to Ben not having Echo Echo at this point in time. He was used to essentially gang up on Eon and force Eon to retreat.
Weaknesses
All Dittos (Ditto?) are connected in a mental link of sorts. This means that if one Ditto feels pain, it will be felt amongst all other Dittos (such as when one Ditto's leg was inside a giant seagull's beak and the other Ditto felt the pain from it). Its not to hard to imagine what happens if one of them dies. This appears to have been rectified in Omniverse though.
The Dittos must be in total agreement when they try to complete an objective. If they aren't they can get in arguments between each other so its vital that the Dittos have complete certainty over what they're doing (such as annoying Gwen).
Even though they have a connection when it comes to pain, they aren't actually telepathically linked and this is shown when one Ditto is captured yet the other three are completely unaware that hes missing.
Going Ditto uses a lot of energy from the Omnitrix. Though this was likely due to the fact that the Omnitrix had tried to time Ben out twice before it was actually able to (effectively meaning that Ben had spent at least twice as much time in alien form than the Omnitrix deemed safe enough) and also the fact that Animo had also taken out energy from the Omnitrix to create a mutant lepidopterran so it may not actually be an issue.
Ditto's small size makes him unsuitable for fighting larger opponents, even with his duplication ability.
Ditto's small size makes him unsuitable for fighting larger opponents, even with his duplication ability.
Eye Guy
Eye Guy is an Opticoid from the planet Sightra. He made his debut in Ben 10 vs the Negative 10: Part 2. Eye Guy is the first alien to be unlocked off-screen meaning that we didn't have to see Ben get a hold of his abilities in his debut episode. Also considering he's covered in eyes, it going to be very difficult to sneak up on him.
Eye Guy's eyes can fire energy beams of various types. He can use ice beams to freeze opponents such as Clancy.
He can fire a powerful, green energy beam from his chest.
In Rad Eye Guy was used in an attempt to find the Grackleflint which was a pretty smart move as his 360 degree vision was pretty useful. Of course when he did find the Grackleflint, it sprayed venom in Eye Guy's eyes and then pounced on him. Fortunately Rad Dudesman was there to back him up.
In Evil's Encore Eye Guy was used to fight Animo and his mutant giraffe. His lasers kept them on their toes but Eye Guy then used his chest beam which was able to indirectly destry part of the R.V's roof. He fired it multiple times and each time it hit something, it caused an explosion.
In Mud Is Thicker Than Water Eye Guy was able to use his lasers to destroy large pieces of debris before demonstrating that he could also fire freeze rays out of his eyes to put the fire out.
Weaknesses
Eye Guy's eyes are an obvious weak spot and because they are all over his body it is extremely easy to hit them.
Ben's mentality is also a weakness for Eye Guy. In Something Zombozo This Way Comes Eye Guy was rendered useless because his eyes kept seeing clowns, Ben's ultimate fear.
As shown in The Ultimate Heist Eye Guy is sensitive to loud noises and was immediately defeated when he was hit with Ultimate Echo Echo's Sonic Doom attack.
Eye Guy is allergic to a certain type of cologne.

Way Big
Way Big is a To'kustar which live in Cosmic Storms. Way Big is the last alien Ben unlocked in the original series and made his debut in Secret of the Omnitrix. Now is you can't tell from the name Way Big is Ben's largest alien and was his most powerful for a while.
Way Big was easily able to destroy most of Vilgax's drones and was able to tank dozens of laser blast without even noticing.
Way Big showed that he had impressive reflexes as he was easily able to catch three ships out of the sky.
Way Big then grabbed Vilgax and try as he might, Vilgax just couldn't get out of Way Big's grip.
Vilgax was only able to get out by Way Big throwing him into outer space.
Way Big was used to fight the evil To'kustar in Destroy All Aliens. He was easily able to tank being pushed into buildings and have buildings slammed on his dorsal fin (despite that being his weak point).
He then tanked a laser beam aimed at his fin which paralyzed him.
In War of the Worlds, Way Big was used to lift the jump gate so as to stop it from allowing a Highbreed Armada into Earth. He might have actually succeeded had he had a little more time.
In Simple Way Big attempted to stop a war. He nearly succeeded because the people had common sense and knew they couldn't do anything to him. Then he accidentally broke a statue by leaning on it and inadvertently sent the armies into a flying rage.
In Primus Way Big was used to fight a gigantic version of Vilgax. He proved to have superior hand to hand combat and the fight ended by Way Big throwing this Vilgax (a being as big as Way Big himself) out of Primus' atmosphere into deep space.
In Video Games Way Big dropped the Stalker onto Will Haraunge's car. Petty but the arsehole deserved it.
In Absolute Power Way Big displayed a new power. The ability to shoot cosmic rays out of his arms and this ability is what allowed him to easily defeat Gwen.
In Ben 10,000 Returns way Big was used to try and destroy the Hands of Armageddon. He failed and accidentally allowed Eon into his timeline. Oops. if that wasn't enough Eon was able to completely erase him from existence.
In The Perfect Girlfriend Way Big was used to fight two sentient buildings. He was easily able to defeat them with a punch and a kick.
In The Widening Gyre Way Big was used to fight the Garbage Monster. The monster had a volume twice the size of Texas and although Way Big seemed to have the upper hand, the garbage monster used his garbage reserves to grow stronger and increase his size. It got to the point where Way Big couldn't even harm him so he did the next best thing. He ran so fast that he created a vortex so powerful that it sent the Garbage Monster out of the atmosphere and into the sun. No it is not a glitch power as Ben intentionally did this. Glitches in the Omnitrix are typically spontaneous and don't last very long (typically a few hours at most) so it is highly unlikely that the glitch kicked in right when Ben needed it to. Now this calc is pretty much gone but I managed to reach a (likely incorrect) figure to measure Way Big's feat: 177,808,209,040,000,000,000 kg of TNT.The figure is incorrect but I thought it would be fun to at least try.
In Blukic and Driba Go to Mr Smoothy's Way Big was used to fight a giant version of Trumbipulor where he took the blunt force of an attack that created a tsunami powerful enough to wreck the garage. Way Big was then able to kick Trumbipulor onto the same garage destroying it. Trumbipulor then ate more of his peanuts which powered him up enough to crush Way Big's skull but thankfully Way Big was able to quick change into Goop.
In Special Delivery Way Big was used to fight Dr. Animo and his mutant mosquito. It went as well as you can expect and the fight was finished by Way Big grabbing a truck and throwing it into outer space. 5 years later Humungousaur throws a projectile into the same van which causes it to fall back down to Earth, withstanding atmospheric re-entry and destroys Mr. Baumann's house.
In Showdown Part 1 Way Big was used to prevent him and Kevin from falling to their deaths. The intended alien was pretty much any flyer Ben had at that time but its just as well Ben got Way Big because immediately after they hit the ground Way Big had to fight Malware. He crushed Malware upon landing but Malware's healing factor prevented him from being killed. Also as a side note but Way Big's landing was enough to cause a small earthquake. Unfortunately by that time Malware had absorbed so much energy it didn't really phase him and Malware was even able to send Way Big flying into a cliff. Luckily Way Big is more nimble then he looks and was easily able to execute a fast combination of attacks before finishing with a cosmic ray. Of course Malware survived it and recalled every piece of himself to grow into his fourth and final form before finally absorbing Way Big.
In The Frogs of War: Part 2 Way Big was used to fight against mutant To'kustars. He was agile enough to dodge one of their cosmic rays before sending it flying and kicking it into Undertown. Unfortunately that wasn't the only one and Way Big was eventually overwhelmed. The Plumbers' were able to send the mutant To'kustars back tot he Null Void just as Milleous was about to fire a death ray at Way Big. As soon as Way Big was free, he created his cosmic ray which effortlessly plowed through the Incursean ship.
In Universe vs. Tennyson Way Big effortlessly defeated Trumbipulor by stepping on him.
In From Hedorium to Eternity Way Big was able to save Gwen, Lucy, Cooper and Jonesy from falling to their deaths,
In Primus Way Big was used to fight a gigantic version of Vilgax. He proved to have superior hand to hand combat and the fight ended by Way Big throwing this Vilgax (a being as big as Way Big himself) out of Primus' atmosphere into deep space.
In Video Games Way Big dropped the Stalker onto Will Haraunge's car. Petty but the arsehole deserved it.

In From Hedorium to Eternity Way Big was able to save Gwen, Lucy, Cooper and Jonesy from falling to their deaths,
Weaknesses
According to Tetrax in Destroy All Aliens the fin at the top of Way Big's head is his weak point.
Fusions
Well in Dr Animo and the Mutant Ray, Ben screwed with the Omnitrix and during that episode it created fusions between random unlocked DNA.
Stink Arms
While Ben initially thought it was a good idea "Now I can fly and kick butt at the same time", he eventually found that there were some disadvantages with this fusion. For one Stink Arms isn't nearly as strong as Four Arms is and was able to barely lift Animo's gigantic frog before being crushed under it. Another disadvantage is that while Stink Arms is able to fly, he is only able to hover slightly above the ground due to his muscle mass. Animo then found the piece of the Omnitrix and retreated which was good because the Omnitrix decided to time out just as he was leaving.
Diamond Matter
The next abomination the Omnitrix produced was Diamond Matter which was used to combat Heatbat. His small size didn't do him any favors as he was quickly abducted by Heatbat, dropped into the river and then eaten by an alligator, before being spat out due to not being able to be eaten. Alligators can bite with up to 16,460 Newtons of Force at a time so despite Diamond Matter's reduced strength (and probably not as durable as Diamondhead) he is still pretty damn durable. Diamond Matter was also able to slice through several trees to clear the way for the boat before timing out.
Heat Jaws
Heat Jaws was the final fusion created by the Omnitrix in Dr Animo and the Mutant Ray. As you can tell, had a major disadvantage from the start. After all an alien who's constantly on fire and an alien who constantly needs water is "not a good combo". Hell he couldn't even get a fire blast out before burning himself out. He does have some degree of enhanced durability as he was still able to remain conscious after being thrown into a wall, with a minor headache (Of course Heatblast was able to get thrown through several buildings with the same result so this is another case of weakening one aliens powers). He tried fighting fire with fire against Heatbat but that only dehydrated him so Heat Jaws was forced to rely on the resources on hand and was able to use a piece of wood to fend off Heat Bat. He was then attacked by Animo's frog and used his fire attacks to defeat it. Of course this resulted in him being unable to breath and when he was about to get into the water, Heatbat picked him up. Luckily Heat Jaws still had his strong jaws attacks and was able to bite Heatbat so that he could fall into the water. This was where he was at his strongest as he only had to use one fire blast each to defeat Animo's pets (because ironically his fire attacks were stronger under water). Heat Jaws then used another fire blast to defeat Animo.
